I couldn't Bare watching


I couldn't bare watching as they laughed at her, Teasing her how she looked, About her family and her books. They said she was poor, because of were she came from, they said she was useless, that no one wanted her at all, That the world would be better without her, I just stood in the crowd, not saying a word, But she ran home crying, The next day we heard, was that she hung her self, she was now dead, Now I knew that I should have stood up for her instead.
