There's this girl
I am willing to say I hate
I dread her very presence
As she isn't anything great

 

There's this girl
Who I truly cannot stand
She picks apart my every flaw
And refuses to give me a helping hand

 

There's this girl
Who acts so stupid around others
She embarrasses herself endlessly
And loses one friend after another

 

There's this girl
That laughs at everything I do
From the way I look to the way I breath
And she's never anything but cruel

 

There's this girl
Who isn't anything extraordinary
She's just an average teenager
Who won't stop hurting me

 

There's this girl
That looks exactly like me
I see her in my nightmares
But never in my happy dreams

 

There's this girl
I am willing to say I hate
I dread her very presence
As she isn't anything great

 

And that girl is me

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
