Start interaction
“Dad I can’t do this anymore, if I have to go back there again who knows what I will do”
“Sally you know I had a difficult day at work”
“Dad don’t you get what I’m saying, don’t you see what I am trying to tell you”
“Honey it will all be better, but my job may not survive after its recent issue, that is something I am very stressed about”
“Dad…. Why won’t you liste..”
“So Sally how was the rest of your week”
“Horrible as I was saying”
“Haha Sally your mom loves you, stop being overdramatic”

No one understands.
No one is there for me.
Life is perfect for me, but it’s not.
I have everything, yet I am struggling
Struggling to fit in
Struggling to be accepted
All I get is negativity
I believe
I am a horrible child
That is all she says
Over and over
Yet I don’t do drugs,
am in honor roll,
and didn’t kiss my 9 month boyfriend because she didn’t want me to.
But I deserve no privacy
Because of what a terrible daughter I am.

No one suspects anything
They think everything is perfect
Because I have a mask
and
Dying
Doesn't even sound too bad anymore

I was upset at the bullying that goes on at my school so I wanted to write a piece that illustrated bullying.
