" yeah I am okay , promise " the words flow from her mouth with an authentically fake smile that somehow even reach her eyes add a small chuckle and her con is still in play cause no one cares to look to deep .

No one cares to look to deep

That's a lie , I know

The tribes Queen , who turned on her heels when the words left the girls mouth.

She ,

She looks deep enough,

she knows many of the Dragons that plagues the girls mind and burn her hearts flesh..

She has many of those same Dragons herself.

They, the girl and the Queen, hail from the same kingdom, their families face the same destruction.

The queen , hears the lies crystal clear

Over the honey sweet voice that lulls the others into believing false statements.

She sees those walls that others fail to see or misunderstand

Walls built not to keep people out

But rather to keep fire from the dragons contained, keep the flames from leaving burns on the flesh of other people's hearts.

The Queen herself once was that girl

With walls high and masks plenty

Acting strong and invincible

While slowly whithering inside.

She wants to help this girl

With every fibre in her being

Before she reach the lowest point

But how

How do when she closes up around her?

How when rules forbid "favoritism "?

How when the rest of the tribe around them don't ?

Understand the kingdom they come from?

The piercing gaze she sents

Let's the girl know

I see through your con

A small weaker smile

Back sent back the message

" I know "

It's not that the girl doesn't want the Queens help

She doesn't know how to accept it and more importantly

How does she let down her walls

Without burning down the whole tribe around her ?
