She is just fourteen
depressed and abused
messages and poetry
dire words, she'll often use
If I had a daughter
and this was how she was
I'd want for her to understand
I'd help her with her cause
I know there are those parents
ignorant and uncaring
blank of soul and eyes
as apathy, is glaring
But, the truth is hard
and advice is fleeting
reality for the sad and lonely
emotionally depleting
Grab your bootstraps tightly
and know this, young lass
life helps those who help themselves
And
Happiness can/will be found, once teenage angst
has passed

It will pass, and the light will be there when it can, but you have too look for it. :)
