Why

Location

As she walks through the halls

the whispers get louder

she's listening

her tear drops glistening

your telling her she's not good enough

some say she's not hood enough

she's debating

if your hating or if she's fading

buying blades

hiding behind shades

why, why bully her

do you know what she went through just earlier

her parents abuse her

which only makes her feel twice as much a loser

I'd just say smack you to next week

but she says all those words just leave her weak

as tear drops lay upon her cheek

she's thinking suicide

but it will only leave you bullies happy, side by side

so all she has left is to cry

all I ask is why ?
