her emotions are concealed,
obstructed by the barrier
she puts up for the world to see.


cause if they can't see
the strain in her eyes
they won't know what
she carries on her shoulders.


her friends no longer inquire,
since the only response,
was a constant
denial of pain.


and she weaves secrets
like a spider weaves silk
(but spiders
don't get caught
in their own webs.)


her echoing heart says
to let a door open
so that maybe
the agony won't crush quite so much.


but she's scared to
let the light in,
cause she knows it'll cut through
the darkness.


her universe
consists of affliction
and attempting
to cause it to cease.


she'll stop her ears with
stardust,
and let the moonlight blind
her eyes.


she thinks
that if her senses
cannot detect,
maybe it isn't reality after all.


and maybe if she fills in
the spirals on her fingertips,
she'll leave a bigger mark
on the world.

If you fave mine, please fave hers as well. :)
My part is everything other than the italics, she wrote the italicized parts.
