How do you tell...?
October 23, 2013
A school of fish...
A deck of cards...
She's the different one,
But how do you tell?
Look deep inside,
Past the facade she puts up.
Look through her eyes
Feel the pain she felt
You know nothing about her
But the scars will tell you everything
Every one of them,
A different story.
But you have to
Pay close attention
For she won't tell.
She prefers silence.
A loud silence
That can drown out her screams.
A silence that creates
The scars that help you
Tell her apart.
