Small stories by a small girl #53

she is no longer human
she is merely here to perform
to do what others expect of her
she is to live by the rules of society
to follow what people expect her to
the person she was
died long ago
before she even got to live
now she is a shell
just moving forward

but ever so often
she breaks
and all the dreams flow out
in those tiny moments
she is a true being
only till someone sees
and puts her back in her place
