Depression
All along there was this girl
who didn't fit into the world.
No one believed she could
make a change in this world
but only bring it down, to make
it hurl.
All along this girl was the most
beautiful, yet courageous girl. She
smiled behind her tears, didn't
believe what others said...
Until one night when her feelings
got to her, as she laid in her bed.
Mom came home drunk,
passed out onto the couch, her
Dad passed away five years ago,
due to a hit and run, not safe and
sound.
All along this girl was being bullied
because the children thought it was
a funny story, that her Mom hadn't
come home one night to surprise
her, for her birthday party.
Which was sad because no one else
provided for her, they are all the same.
Including her Step Father who didn't make
him unseen. Sadly he abused her in many
ways, of which her Mother did not care only
because she didn't want to get tortured either.
In fact she had to watch in horror.
All along this girl was to remain, quiet, unspoken
until one day she made herself seen! She grabbed
a smile onto her face and continued to yell within
pace. Every child that day let her alone, while she
stood her ground; no one then messed around.
She couldn't take it NO MORE!! She raced through
the bedroom door, grabbed the phone dialed
specific numbers and told them where they were.
All along this girl was to remain quiet and unspoken
but as she stood her ground, EVERYTHING turned
around. Now the police stood outside the house, and
helped her. Helped her become free of that place,
because whoever knew one Thing could change a
WHOLE day?
