She kills herself, the girl next door. she harms herself, the girl next door. no words from her family, no words from her friends. only i saw it before she did it, only i saw it unfold right before she did it. now she's gone, the girl next door. 6ft deep; the girl next door. dead and never alive, the girl next door. i wonder what would happen if i spoke up? i wonder what would happen if i stopped her right before she killed herself there? however i do not think that i can bare. bare such a thought, bare such worries. but she killed herself, the girl next door. so i do not need to care.

The Girl next door
She kills herself, the girl next door. she harms herself, the girl next door. no words from her family, no words from her friends. only i saw it before she did it, only i saw it unfold right before she did it. now she's gone, the girl next door. 6ft deep; the girl next door. dead and never alive, the girl next door. i wonder what would happen if i spoke up? i wonder what would happen if i stopped her right before she killed herself there? however i do not think that i can bare. bare such a thought, bare such worries. but she killed herself, the girl next door. so i do not need to care.
would she have done it again even if she survived?
