She was

As ignorant

As a child.

She did

Not see

That others

Were sad.

She did not 

See that

Every ones smiles

Were as fake

As hers.

They were

As ignorant

As children.

They did

Not realise

That there

Were many layers

To her.

Maybe she

Did not want to reveal

Them all.

She didn't want

Someone 

To see her for

Who she really was.

She was herself

And she wanted a part of

Her to stay

her.

The real

Her.

They tried to

Strip the

Layers away like

Roses being

Torn apart.

Her petals fell

Like leaves.

She felt more and more

Exposed and

Bare.

She wanted it to stop.

She wanted to be left.

Alone.
