The Perfect Kid

The Perfect Kid who constantly has to score 90 because otherwise what will society say?
The Perfect Kid who has to be thin, be polite, has to excel at everything because otherwise she is a a shame to her family.
The kid who everyone has expectations from.
The kid who takes all the taunts, all the mockery silently.
The kid who is not able to handle years of pressure.
She puts on a smile and performs in front of the world like a porcelain doll.
Hiding her bruises, hiding her battle scars from everyone.
WHY? WHY? WHY?
IS FAILING SUCH A BAD THING?
