Here i lay..

Here i lay
throbbing, screaming,
yelling your name.
i know love is lost,
but what about life?
Judge her by the way she dyes her hair
Judge her by the way her skin is unnaturally fair
Judge her by the way she hides the shame
Judge her by the way she feels the pain
Judge her by the way she just wants to belong
Judge her by the way she just wants to feel love
Her friends are scared
Her teachers are terrified
For the way she looks
For the way she acts
She's different
She's an outcast
For the anger she holds
All she can take
She's afraid she might break
She just wants to be loved
To be held tight
Through the bloodshed and the fear
She's full of hate
Afraid of the world
That sees her for what she is
She just wants to be accepted for who she is
Her friends noticed a change,
They noticed the pain
Her friends asked if she was ok
She answered
Her voice full of shame
The way she wore her clothes,
The way she styled her hair
The music she listened to,
The boys she liked
They noticed the cuts, the scars and the anger
Up till that day,
She's been alone
With nothing to live for,
She took her last breath
