In busy halls where whispers play,
Popularity shines bright each day.
Smiles are masks, hiding some pain,
Hearts grow heavy under the fame.
We chase the glow, wanting to be seen,
But true worth is found in moments serene.
While others seek what fades away,
I’ll cherish the love that’s here to stay.
Amidst the glitter, I’ve come to see,
True light comes from inside me.
It’s in the bonds that feel so real,
That’s where my heart learns how to heal.
