That Gril

July 22, 2011

What if i told you that
That girl ever there
Sitting in the basketball shorts And red tank
She smokes
She drinks
Oh, and she cuts
What of those three
Would you believe?
How would you treat her?
Would you spread rumors?
Would you tell an adult?
Would you try to help her,
Or just ignore it?
I'll let you in on a secret,
She doesn't drink
She doesn't smoke
She cuts...
She cries herself to sleep
She tries to stop
But it's taken over her life
Are read for the biggest secret?
That girl... was me...
