Lost Girl

Clinging to her books

Dodging dirty looks

Nasty names that are thrown

Just because she is not another clone

"Freak and loser." are her most popular nicknames

she is tired of playing these hateful games

She goes home and cries everyday

We pray and hope she doesn't slip away

She depressed and hurt

She is tired of being lower than dirt

She now takes a blade

Please someone come to her aide

 There is no luck with that

She has already slipped through the crack

 She was finally driven insane

By the people that messed with her brain

So now she ended her life

All because hateful words caused her to end it

One simple cut of the knife.

never simple is it? many times good folk hurt themselves rather than hurting others it's too bad they see no other way? Light & Love
