Goals and aspirations Quote by RockyMills
“Outside lives a girl with eyes of joy that bring you to ease, yet inside hides a girl shedding tears of sadness. Outside lives a girl with a beautiful laugh that's contagious, yet inside hides a girl screaming her lungs out in underwater anger. Outside lives a girl with a personality everyone envies, yet inside hides a girl full of insecurities and shame. Outside lives a girl who is fearless and tough, yet inside hides a weak girl who lives in fear. Outside lives a girl full of life, yet inside hides a girl full of pain, waiting to die. Outside lives a girl with a perfect image, yet inside hides a girl with regrets and mistakes. Outside lives a girl of innocence, yet inside hides a girl with tremendous guilt. Outside lives a girl with goals and aspirations, yet inside lives a girl lost in confusion...What you see on the outside is my personal disguise, What hides underneath you can't even begin to imagine.”
