Sincerely, Her


Dear those who think they know,

here's a story about this lonely chick 

her life so sad it could really be a flick

when it all started in grade five 

when boys tugged, pulled but could never look her in the eye 

treated her like she was just a toy 

little did she know it would only get worse with the boys 

she went on to grade seven 

tall, starry eyed she thought she could save him 

but all in the end he broke her little heart

found she wasn't his one and only, she fell apart

finally here come summer sixteen 

she started feeling like a real teen 

until came creepin' this thievin' thing 

he had his game planned

sweet talk, steal her heart, and act like a real man

when it came to this 

pushed her down, ignored the stop, decided to confuse no with yes

from this she was scarred, never to look at a man the same 

never let anyone get close enough to truly pick her brain

only her old best friend 

until once in high school he came back in the picture again 

but only to persue her

she trusted him, didn't know she really shouldn't, he truly fooled her 

he only wanted one thing, then tossed her aside when she wouldn't give it up 

that's when she really gave up

she tried long distance so he couldn't hurt her

yet it all hurt the same

lost a best friend 

because of her lying games

then one day he popped up, it was truly strange

she was so confused

why did he choose?

she stopped and decided not to question it 

let's go why not try it?

he was good, respected her

then things took a turn  

causing her anger to burn

only put out by the tears in her eyes 

leaving her wondering, what's wrong? is it me or the guys?

Sincerely,  her
