Pretty Little Nothing

We all have that girl in our lives.

She could go to your school,

be your cousin,

or be your friend.

She's the perfect one.

She's the one with the long blond

hair and the straight white teeth.

She's the one with the bright blue eyes

and the long tanned legs.

She's the one that gets all the boys

and seems to be good at everything.

She is skinny,

she is beautiful,

and everyone loves her.

But you know things about her.

You know lots of things about her.

You take one look at her and know what

she's been doing.

You see her skinny legs, bones almost visible

through the skin.

You see the emptiness in her eyes,

as if she's been used a million times and drained out.

You hear the noises she makes in the washroom

after lunch. You can hear her finger going

deeper and deeper down her pretty throat.

And you know about her parents, how they torture her,

punish her, make her go down on her knees and cry a river.

You have heard the small rumors that guys have spread,

saying how she's a tease and didn't put up.

But she's perfect.

She's the one that people love.

She has all the friends,

all the love and everything you don't have.

You're jealous.

You're mad.

You deserve the love.

But you sit there, and lay back.

You hear her gag and hear the rumors about what she did last night.

And you start to wonder if a girl like her does deserve the love. 

A pretty girl filled with nothing deserves love.

LOve this

[Jim Roberson]

Very true. Powerful. It makes me think about how I hated the skinny, attractive, popular girls because they all acted like b***ches. But you never know what goes on in someone's life. THey could be treating themselfs worse than you. Good job, very nice.

[TWISTED NIGHTMARE]

Angry, charged with emotion and honestly direct. I like it.

[Break The Broken]

wow. i love it! i love the begining where u made it sound like you just talking about a pretty girl with the perfect life then you went into jealously, and how she made herself throw up and how her paerents made her cry and how the boys say rumers. i loved it every bit of it!!!

[PokemonFan#1]

I could imagine the beauty of her and then the changing of her. The beating and the pain she's in. Then changing back to her beauty, being surounded by everyone. The parents hatred and then the love at school. Another interesting poem and imaginairy. Keep the great work up.
