A Fallen Girl

she screamed, she cussed, she cried

she fell into a hole, gave up, and died

she'd been destroyed

washed by waves of pain, over and over, year after year

nothing left but empty words

not one shed tear

the people she'd known were angry and sad

her parents, of course, were extremely mad

'such a selfish act, her dying like that'

her friends confused

'we didn't know things were that bad'

her siblings lost

'no way it's true'

her future, gone

everyone haunted by the news

and as they buried her on that day

echoed were the words she used to say

"Shout-out to those bravest of actors, the ones that hide their tears with their laughter."
