The girl she was, the woman she could be
She cries 
 With tears in her eyes
 She's in pain
 Slowly going insane
 She says she's fine 
 But she has been saying so since she was nine
 She feels as if there is a hole in her heart 
 But that is only one part
 If only people knew that she was a jewel 
 Maybe they wouldn't be so cruel
 She has a mother 
 Who doesn't love her
 And a father
 Who has traveled farther
 She doesn't know why she is alive 
 Why can't she just go back to the age of five
 She decides to take her own life
 Not knowing that one day she would make a great wife
 She was a teen
 Never mean
 This is real
 No funny deal
 I'm not a preacher
 Nor a teacher
 I'm only a writer acting as a highlighter
