Her

The weight of words from those who don't understand

Is the reason why bullying is the problem at hand

They don't see the pain behind someone's smile

Or how high their problems pile

They don't know her dad lost his job

Her brother has a brain tumor

They can't see anything through her thick fog

They decide to spread a rumor

The same way her uncle forced her to spread her legs

Now her younger brother has the future of being locked up or dead

Just because their father is never there

And the kids at school mess with his head

This is more than she can bear

The weight crushes her shoulders

But she can't fall

She's their soldier

She protects them all

Author's Note

If you see someone struggling help them,wether they want it or not. Too many people are dying from suicide and broken hearts. Share a little love,give a helping hand,and never take no as an answer...
