The Girl I Thought I Knew
There once was a girl,
She was beautiful
Her piercing green eyes could keep me occupied for hours,
The bright smile that crossed her face made me speechless
She was perfect
Chocolate waves of silky hair cascaded down her back,
Freckles scattered across her face like stars in the sky
She was gorgeous
I would look at her when she read,
Her eyes scanning the pages with adornment
She was lovely
I thought her life was ideal,
Friends and teachers loved her
She was stunning
One day she was gone,
And the next day too
Then I learned the truth,
I thought she was happy
I thought she was fine,
She was gone.
