There was a girl,
Confident and carefree
Super-girly but low-maintenanced
A smart person; ambitious
Surrounding herself with positive friends,
to block negativity.
Her personality,
Beams like the sun.
She inspires and informs.
After all,
She is a typical girl.

Underneath it all, is a different story.
Her make up covers
her insecurities and imperfections.
Her past relationships are heartbreaking.
She is flirty with boys,
to stand out.
After all,
She is a typical girl.


She met her first love at a party.
He seemed like the perfect boyfriend.
Other teenagers said they were crazy in love.
After all,
She is a typical girl.

He became dishonest
and always lied
This bothered her.
She was devastated
Because she knew it was over.
But she will get over it.
After all,
She is a typical girl.
