Young and in love,                she was everything I                wanted and more. We                even had matching tattoos                to prove it.                                   Her parents                thought our love written                in permanent ink                  was a serious issue, but                  little did I know this                ink would turn into nothing more         than scar tissue. Seeing                  a wild night turn bad, we                wish she would have turned                away and ran.                                   But this is where it all began.                                   Engaged on a Friday night,    her friends wanted to do something special for her bachelorette    party.                   They leave for Italy, and      I'm overwhelmed with fear,                but her best friend puts me at ease,       for I know her intentions are                  innocent and sincere.                                   At a bar, everybody is soaking                in the joy, laughing, and having            a good time.                                   But when sweaty Latino dudes climb   into the picture, everyone                  starts to separate. She's got a bad           feeling about this.                                   The dude next to her                is getting a little touchy                feely, and she can sense                trouble, on account he will not                get out of her personal bubble.                    He offers her drinks, and                she thinks...                                 "Why not? It's harmless, right?"                                 Little does she know that the                dude buying her this drink is                totally insane, and when                she passes out, he's going to                take her home                and run a train.                                   8 Latinos, 4 blacks,                and two whites each                have their five minutes.                                   Naked and battered,                  she now lies                  helplessly shattered.                                   She may have survived,                but during that night                  a piece of her had died.                                 Not wanting to be touched,  and not wanting to be seen, she can't stand the sight of her being a recluse.                So she takes a bottle of pills                and is found hanging from              a noose.
