Shattered Girl


How could one girl so alone be

Everyone's light?

She sits by herself in an

Isolated room.

Everyone wants her to change,

Wants her to be different.

She is now a shattered girl.

She once was happy,

Now she is pressured to be perfect.

She hides her hurt,she seals away her pain.

She once was whole,but

Now is a shattered girl.

That girl you called fat 

Called ugly

Taunted and spat spit wads 

Sits in the back row everyday 

Is now the Shattered girl

Has blood running down her wrist 

She has only seconds before 

She takes her own life and it 

Will soon be too late 

Because she is already gone

Because she had become that shattered girl.
