The Hideous Star

Post by Hannahhhh »

they see her as the girl on the streets
they see her as the failure
they see her as the public humiliation

what they don't see;
is how big her heart is
what they don't see;
is how open her mind is
what they don't see;
is how she cries her eyes out
knowing that no matter how much she tries
she'll never live to the people's expectations

I'm not sure anything new is being said in this poem that I haven't seen before.
Perhaps describe the people more or the girl.
Use specifics =)

You should describe the accusations more.
