A/N This poem was written for my best friend, she is an amazing person, who was betrayed and because of that betrayal has to endure the homophobic comments of her peers in a silent torture. This is for her.
A girl stands infront of her
cracked fragile mirror
A wish on the tip of her tongue
to please dissapear
She holds her heart in her hands
like a last sacrifice
From her back portrudes
the blood stained knife
Tears fall down like the
walls she had so stubbornly built
Her shoulders lean forward
like a rose bound to soon wilt
the weight of their hatred
Casting their own stones onto her body
The whispers at her famed sexual oddity
But still she stands, like a statue of stone
In her dark room with the blinds tightly closed
Begging a mirror who shows only
a cracked simple reflection
Pointing back to her every minor imperfection
Forcing her to remain in a world
That is flooded by unheard cries
Silenced by thundering hatred
that echoes like their blood
stained eyes
A portrait of sorrow
In perfection condition
Existing in silence like an
unspoken admission
Reflecting the mirror of societies hate
By showing a girl
Who just couldn't be straight.
