The GirlA Poem by ElsieI want everyone to know that I want to make sure no one will ever feel that they are alone. Cause no one is every truly alone.A small girl grew up in a terrible structured family Always trying to be in the cool group Trying to have her father be proud of her Working hard in school
But it was never good enough
Being bully by all the students Never being able to get in the cool group Always sitting alone at lunch Having cruel and nasty names thrown her way Never getting the approve from her father Worse of all never fitting in
Then there came a point in her life
She could lose all her weight Work a bit less hard Making sure she was up on the new fashion To become a person she was not
Why should she change…
She did everything she could do Still it wasn’t good enough Told: You’re too tall, your fat, your ugly, did you
get up out of a poor house You could name it, she was called it
Then…
Everything change for her A new school, a new home, a new environment Nothing was the same
She still got teased by other kids When she got a positive comment about her She didn’t believe it Always waiting for the other shoe to drop She no longer had self-esteem Any positive comment felt like poison Any negative comments was welcome with wide open
arms
She felt the need to slip into the darkness Trying her hardest not to make herself known Hiding everything behind sweat shirts The only way she knew to keep herself safe Always keeping to herself Keeping people at arm’s length
Her image…
She saw herself as an ugly old hag Had so many scars that no one wanted to go near her No one to love her It was just the way she liked it
No one would ever be able to know the truth She would always push them away
Then she made a discovery…
That when she was wearing a dog collar It made her feel safe and comfort her too Now everyone looked at her Even more as a freak
Why should she care The world had already taking everything away What was left for the world to destroy
Even after years of people given her Positive comments she still shied away She knew she was a lost cause
She had been broken too many times It was already too late for her to pick up the
pieces No way to even hold the pieces together While everyone around her was having a pleasant life She was dying inside
Never were the ways she died was the same As people would get a restful sleep She would by lying awake As her past came to haunt her
When people look forward to a new day and what it
would bring She would wonder if that day would be the day she
would not wake up All the good people had their life Was all a disgrace to her
There was a small piece of her That hoped that she would be whole again The piece was so small that it almost looked like it
