she stands there
in a group of friends
a big smile on her face
laughing with everyone around her
she looks happy
confidant
invincible
but if you touch her
in just the right way
you'll feel her body tense
beneath your hand
with a fear she so
desperately tries to hide
or if someone says a certain thing
you can catch the pain
in her expression
all the secrets
trying to escape
but only for a moment
because she's good at smiling
she always has been
even though everyone
she's ever loved
broke her
