suicide- it isn't a joke
Did you hear?
about the girl down the street
who fell to her knees in defeat?

Did you hear?
about how she cut her wrists
and shoved her finger down her throat

Did you hear?
about how she ran away from home
and was found sitting all alone

Did you hear?
about how she colored her hair
and changed her self

It was all for her friends
Her besties, her buds

She wanted to be seen
to be heard
to be loved

Did you hear?
her cries echo down the hall

Did you hear?
what her boyfriend said to her, by the way

"Its over, we're through. i found a girl way better than you"

All because she wasnt enough
to fill his hormones raging with lust

Did you hear?
How she cried to her teachers
who ignored her and left her on the bleachers

Later that day they found her alone
sitting on her porcelin throne

Mascara laced her ugly eyes
From hours of crying, that had gone by

Did you hear?
Her screams come from that room
where cops had been to see her too

Did you hear?
how she fusses
how she bites

all because of that one dreadful fight

she tried for years and years to be
what everyone wanted, but could never succeed

Did you hear?
on the news that night
she hung herself,

to her parents delight
