Analysis of to the girl



to the girl that pours out tears
to the love that isn't there
to the all that she gave
to the selfishness she never had
to the thoughts that were not hers
to the respect she never recieved
to the talks that were never heard
to the pain that she felt everyday
and to the girl that wants to walk away.
