There Is A Girl Next Door
By: Coral Reyes  

There is a girl next door
She hides her sadness from the world
She wants to feel pain other than the pain in her heart
She has blood all over the floor

Her pair of scissors is her best friend
She doesn’t have anybody else to care for
Her family don’t appreciate her
And so she starts to cut again

She cuts, she cuts, and she cuts some more
So much blood is on the floor
If only someone had been there for her
That lonely girl next door

Her family fades away
As her life slowly drains
With every drip
And every drop
And that girl next door becomes no more.
