"It's pretty hard not to be completely cynical these days"


She's fine...
They all say
When she stopped caring anymore

She'll live...
They all agree
When she cries and run away

She's bluffing!...
They all shouted
About the cuts upon her arms

She's lying!...
They all sneered
When she begged for someone's help

She wouldn't!...
They all laughed
As she left for school that day

 


She was a saint....
They all concluded
When she put a bullet through her brain

We don't know why.......
They all lie.......
In an attempt to justify.......

Someday you'll realize that the words that come out of someone's mouth are more painful than any weapon...
