Once I Was a Happy Girl

(a poem about bullying)

Once I was a happy girl
Then came the day I died
I took my life due to pain
Then suddenly people cried

I used to be so outgoing
But a day came that I was not

I was bullied and teased
And some would say I'm hot

But those that said that
Were only pretending
Because they wanted to hurt me
With all their messages they're sending

I cried almost every day
I would sit alone with no friends
That's when I decided
That all of this was going to end

I took a bunch of pills that day
Then I locked more door at night
I didn't think what this would do
When Mom would see this sight

Now I am a dead girl
And my family paid the price
All because I was harassed
By people who weren't so nice

Once I was a happy girl
Now my memory is all that's left
Please put a stop to bullying
So no other lives would suffer this theft!
