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.
Damn
