She walks in
Eyes on the floor
Drawing everybody's eyes up
Hair coiled tightly
Wound up
Just like her heart
Her heart that feels like it's being squeezed
As strong as the looks she gets
Her face is a straight mask
Of mascara, blush and eyeshadow
As if she doesn't care
But she knows
It's the only way to hide
All of her emotions
Everyone looks at her
All of them envious
Of her beauty
All of the envious
Thinking she's happy
But she knows
If they truly knew
Her
If they truly knew
How alone she was
They wouldn't want to be her

All of your writing makes so much sense and is very relatable. I think you're one of the best people on Young Writers Project who addresses the "hiding" emotion. So yeah... Keep up the great work. *Insert thumbs up here.
Thank you so so so much. This actually means a lot to me I realize appreciate it :)
Siyona.S.stay said it best your writing is layered and embodies deeper emotional elements wrapped in storytelling and visuals. The squeezing heart, the coiled hair and the air of masked carelessness trickled into a beautiful and heart-squeezing ending. We've all at some point felt this way I believe, and it is relatable and I love the line breaks. Incredible work. Keep writing
