It is one thing to make a choice. It is another thing to never have the chance.


Crimson blood trickles through her gently parted ruby red lips
Her shiny blue eyes are suddenly dull and lifeless
My heart breaks as I touch her pale hand
Salty tears pour silently from my hazel eyes
She died because of one sentence
No one would care if you disappeared
She slit her throat just to see if it was true
And then it hit me
The note she gave me was for you


The author's comments:
Bullying is an awful thing. This piece tells about a girl who was verbally abused by the people around her. She finally took their words to heart and committed suicide because she felt inferior and alone. I hope this really gets the message out there about what bullying will do to someone.
