i once knew a girl

Who tried so very hard to please everyone

Who tried to hold up the whole world

Who was sick of feeling so lonely

Who got sick of being the odd one out

Who tried so hard to be everyone's friend

Who was trying so hard to reach her extreme goals

Who tried tirelessly to meet everyone's expectations

Who smiled through the pain for her family’s sake

Who forced herself to eat so nobody would worry

Who got tired of being doubted by EVERYONE

Who came to hate herself very much

Who screwed up every relationship that came to her

Who tired of standing back up only to get knocked down again

Who pushed away the only ones that ever cared about her

Who cried herself to sleep at night wishing she was better

Who desperately wanted to fix everything she’d ever done wrong

Who wondered why she was still here and decided to fix  the matter

who was always there to solve everyone else's problems but never solved her own

i once knew a girl just like that
