Misunderstood

When you look at me
You see a girl with brown hair and big brown eyes
I always keep myself clean and fresh looking
But underneath the make-up and hairspray
There's something you wouldn't imagine
A broken little child with a million personalities
I've been through a lot of things that made me move locations
Some of my past will always haunt me
I've been used, abused, beat, broken, and in love
Everything that I went through-
The tears, laughter, and blood,
Made me who I am today
I'm shattered but I keep my head high and never look down
You would never even think I was cracked
When you endure life-changing situations you gain knowledge that helps you
I've physcotic and mentally unstable,
But guess what?
I got through it and life has kept going on..

This is a poem about the "real me," not the fake front i put on for other people. It's very deep and it is one of my favorite poems.
