Words words
They hurt her more
The girl runs away
She slams the door
She takes a knife
And cuts her skin
Remembering how screwed up
Her life had been.

She leans to the toilet
Throws up to be thin
At school all she has is a grin
She cuts cuts cuts some more
Screaming in pain
Blood on the floor.

People call her emo
People laugh at her face
But they haven’t even tried
To be in her place
Her dad just died
Her mom has depression
Her brother must go through
A therapy session.

Why can’t people see
The grin in a lie
Everything’s done for
Her life’s slowly fading by.
Blood’s dripping on the floor
She’s screaming in pain
She can’t eat because that means
More weight to gain.

She wishes to be perfect
She says it’s not fair
She says she hears people
Talking about her hair.
She cuts it all off
Her soul has been broken
She never told anyone
Her words never spoken
She takes a rope
Hangs herself in the dark
She no longer has
A beating heart.

Her friends fall to the ground
When they hear “she’s dead”
Her brother cries
As he sleeps in her bed.

She is gone
She is done
All because of people
Making fun.

She’s buried on a Saturday
People start crying
All because one girl
Stopped trying.
