Invisible Hero

Invisible Hero

She’s the invisible hero,
To the friends she’s never had
She’s the shoulder no one’s cried on,
Because she’s the only one’s who’s sad.

So, she releases her emotions,
like ink spilled upon a page
Her cry for help is silenced
by her life within the cage

A life locked in chains,
laughter missing from the air,
It's easy to be forgotten,
when its simple to despair

The marks hidden on her arm
prove she doesn't know her worth
finding freedom in a moment,
each breath rejects her own birth.

Eyes cast down with downcast I’s
A pretty girl is destroyed by lies

If only she could see,
the beauty behind her tears
If only she could lift her hands
And push against her fears.
