That boy who you called weird next door Is struggling to support his family of four His mothers been bed bound with depression for weeks And each night his blood runs as alone he weeps
And that girl you said was living the high life Comes home each night to her father beating his wife She cries and screams but always loses Each morning with makeup she covers the bruises
That quiet boy who you called gay Is overcome by thoughts of harm each day He hates himself, his wrists are scarred With thoughts of death his mind is barred
That girl you saw who you called obese She starves herself without release She canβt stand to see herself In a mirror Her tears have stained on her pillow
Iβm quite new to poetry and this is one of my first poems. I hope you like it π
