Where does her mind wander?

Why does she live in two worlds at once?

Is she on drugs?

Or is she just insanely creative?

Is she just crazy?

Does she know how to deal with hurt?

Does she realize she causes pain?

Is she a bulldozer looking for destruction?

Or is she just a romantic filled with hope?

Is she a slut?

Or is she just beautiful?

Does she have a stone for a heart?

Or is she recklessly impulsive from the start?

Does she view the world through several lens?

Or is she stuck in space?

Looking through a telescope?

Is she a bright shining star?

Or does she beam from the reflections down on Earth?

Is her light from the corners of her mouth?

Or is she a bitch because of her resting face?

Are her shorts too short?

Does she have too many piercings?

Is she expressing herself incorrectly?

Is she not still a lady?

Or is she emo, grunge, or trying to look ugly?

Does she walk with her head high?

Or is she being snotty and snobby?

Can she just exude confidence?

Or is she supposed to shuffle?

If her head is down, does she have to look up?

Or does she hate herself?

What if she secretly loves herself?

Is she looking down on others?

Can they do as they please, then?

Try to force their way in?

Or is she rude if she says no?

Because she has self-respect?

What if she is honest with herself?

Honest to everyone else?

Does that offend others?

Or can they not handle the truth?

Why ask her opinion?

Does it not matter?

Does her voice not carry?

Or do they not want to listen?

What if they ask her a question?

But because of this she does not answer?

Is she mute?

Is she deaf?

What if she can hear?

But chooses not to listen to hypocrites?

Does that make her a cold hearted bitch?

Or is she avoiding toxic stains?

If she avoids anything is she automatically a coward?

Or is she not allowed to protect herself?

Can she not close off parts of herself?

Or is that playing hard to get?

Does she view others as insignificant?

Or does she actually silently care?

Is she watching and observing?

Or is she plotting nasty schemes?

Does she not want any friends?

Or do they not want her?

Why does she think no one likes her?

Is it all her fault?

Or do they have their own insecurities?

How does she not get jealous?

Is it because she thinks she’s the best?

Or does she simply put effort into things?

Does that mean she is a try hard?

Is she a “know it all”?

Or is she a curious person?

Does she enjoy learning and growing?

Or is she just trying to rank first?

Or does she face a lot of doubt?

Causing her to prove herself?

Prove her abilities?

When everyone thinks she is too weak?

Too stupid?

Lacks common sense?

Or does she think instead of voice every thought?

Does that make her evil?

Is she actually manipulative?

Or is she honest with her intentions,

While other try to make her play their game?

But what if she’s actually the dealer?

And they don’t realize they are the pawns?

What about those who stand on her side?

Does she play with them, too?

Or does she secretly help them win?

And recognize all of their strength?

Or is she manipulating them, too?

Does she even see them as friends?

Or is everyone another game?

Is she actually looking for equality?

Or does she yearn for power struggle?

What if she’s actually lonely?

Or she cares enough to try and understand someone?

Are they just too scared to let her in?

Or is she not worthy of their love?

Does she look down on herself?

Does she need everyone’s help?

Or does she simply get pushed away?

If she pushes away instead, does that make her cruel?

Or is she saying, “that’s enough”?

What if they’re dragging her across cement?

Is she supposed to just hang on?

Why does she think the way she does?

Why do they try to think for her?

How about no more is she this or that?

Is it possible to loose judgements and rudeness?

When can she just be herself?
