I Still Hear Her

Will I ever lose the feeling of that lonely little girl? Am I trying to forget her or just cope within this world? It’s so easy to ignore her as I go about my day. I never have to mention all the things I hear her say. Like, ''You know you’re just not good enough'' or ''You shouldn’t even try''. I could pretend I never hear her when she starts to cry. It’s hard to move towards happiness and leave her in the past. She needs to see she’s made it and this time it’s going to last. I’m going to make her happy and show her she can win. I owe it to that little girl that’s screaming from within.
