people gt things said to them by how they look and sometimes it really hurts..
Monday morning comes around
early in the morning she wakes up not hearing a sound
she sits up in bed when she hears her mother yell "get up get ready for school"
just hearing the sound of it makes her start to cry, wishing for one day she colds just be cool
she walks over to her mirror and looks at her face
she wonders why people laugh at her just because she’s a different race
she walks down the hall barley picking her feet up off the floor
she walks a little quicker slowly going out the door
she sits on the bench waiting for her bus
when all the other kids come over start making a fuss
she begins to cry
asking her self over and over again why!?
they see the bus come around the coroner and quickly push her out of the way
she stands in the back letting everyone else on first like she dose every day
she sits down in a seat
waiting for someone to come up and start to beat
a boy comes over with a smile on his face
he looks at her and laughs calling her a mixed race
a tear flows down from her eye
all she’s wishing right now is that she would die
the bus pulls up to her school and stops
still crying she looks out the window witha little smile then the boy slaps her "your still a mixed race even if your dad is a cop"
she starts to cry looking back at her dad
just knowing has there makes her a little glade
everyone pushes her out of the way just like before
she tried not to give in and she tried to ignore
she got ff the bus and waved at her dad
he smiled and waved back but by the look in her eyes he knew she was sad
she slowly walks inside
as her dad watches quietly from behind
the day passes with the same teasing and name calling
people keep pushing her down as they watch laughing as there watching her as she’s falling
she runs home crying
screaming” I cant take this anymore! im tired of trying!
she grabs a knife and runs to her room
she stabs herself in the heart and falls to the ground in her tragic doom
when her parents find her its to late
she’s already met her fate
all they got was her note "to all the people i once knew at school
i commuted suicide because of you!"
