Fat?

The girl despaired

They taunted and teased

Pulling at her skin

Grabbing the non-existent flesh



Every night,

She cried herself to sleep

Hoping they'd leave her alone

In the days to come.



Her hopes were never granted.

They mocked and crowed

Jeering at the bag of bones

Insulting her in any way they could.



They cried when they heard

Cried at the funeral

Offered condolences to her parents

Little did they know about her diary



Every word they'd ever uttered

Catalogued for everyone to see

A precise document

Telling of secrets and hurt.



Mortified faces

Thought their words had been forgotten

Never realised

How much pain they had caused.
