There's a girl
in a big brick house
quietly crying tears of pain.
It's all she can do.

No one understands her,
they all make fun
and don't realize her agony.
She's finished crying now.

While she walks to the mirror,
she looks at herself in horror.
"How could anyone love me?"
she says to herself.

"I'm just another mistake,
no on wants me anymore."
She goes on and on until she decides,
"I'll make it stop, I know I can."

The ivory color of the toilet bowl,
calls out her name over and over.
She walks towards it--lifts the lid,
and she's on her journey to becoming beautiful.

For months she purged her soul
into her mission,
she knew in the end it would be worth it,
she would be worth it.

Too bad she didn't think
about what would happen
when she didn't s t o p.
She's almost gone now.

This isn't what she wanted...
I know so.
So told me herself when she disappeared,
and I couldn't say another word.

I can't believe I almost made that mistake,
luckily I had my friends,
to help me through it all,
even when I didn't want them.

I know the younger generations hate to hear it...but you  need to work on who you are and what you want to do with your life and not depend  on the love of another,  other than that of parents/family and those who will always love you unconditionally.

  When in those teenage years and even the  twenties you are still growing and changing and learning and experiencing life and to make "final" decisions when that young depending on another's love  or other's  opinions about you, are really not as important as what you think about yourself and your inner beauty and talents.

Enjoyed  reading~~
