If her beauty was on the outside, maybe then she would be heard If only someone would pause and truly observe If only he rolled up his sleaves, his cuts would reveal all If only they noticed, before more would fall If only teens werent mocked for mental illness If only this world wanted to notice They would see shades not only of black and grey But vibrant colors bleeding, bruised and begging for justice
