The Pretender Poem by Kacey Hauck

its the pain in her eyes
the smile when she lies
the way she acts like shes okay
never saying what she wants to say
walking away when she feels scared
just to think she really cared
she just needs to kno that its okay
then she can pretend for another day.
shes good at acting like shes fine
they dont see theres no truth behind that line
thers always a little trouble behind the wall
because shed never want them see her fall
thats what they wish would occur
cuz it seems like they just want to hurt her
