"Everything has it's beauty but not everyone sees it"


She lived
But wanted to die
No one understood her pain
She always cried
No one ever saw
For she wanted to conceal
All that she thought
All that she feels

People thought she was mean
And she kind of was
Who could blame her
Well many would
Her life wasn't perfect
Wasn't good
It was her fault
She messed up
Drugs can do that
To bad she didn't live long enough

Her high school now has a memorial
Saying how much she'll be missed
When it was the people
Who drove her to death
With all the judging and laughing
Stupid remarks
I feel bad for all those people
Because they all suck
Her death is upon them
I hope they remember her
When it all comes back to them
They'll know exactly how she felt
As she tried to live

To bad she didn't live long enough
To figure out she could make her way back
To the person she was
Before she went down a bad path
It's never easy
But it's sometimes better than death
Well hopefully she has peace
Wherever that is


The author's comments:
I was watching the news and they anounced that a boy killed himself after kids at school constantly kept calling him gay, and making jokes. Also feelings of one of my old friends came back into my head and the issues she had as well. I felt like writing something that could make people see, even if it's a speck, that people have feelings. Don't forget that.
