A SILENT KILLER
I wanna tell you a story. So here goes....
Everything's quiet and everyone's gone
Her eyes are so full of tears, she can't see anyone
Quietly, she says goodbye to her family and friends
Never knew her first kiss was nothing short of pretend
Filled with conniving deceit, he leaves her in the end
Stabbed in the back by her best friend over teenage drama
An orphan girl, no mother or father
She feels alone, so heartbroken
Then the demon in her has finally awoken
She screams her lungs out, wanting to go insane
Her blood begins to boil as anger flows through her veins
She's now a shell of her former self
Who can't even call for help
Trapped in the darkest corner of the world
A life of despair with regrets of being a girl
She misses her old life when people used to be with her
In the end, she dies of depression
For indeed it is....

About this poem
What's more hurtful than the challenges faced by a teen. The most crucial age in the life of young minds. Not all of them live to tell their story when they succumb to it's hardships. Eventually they end up, in the world of no return.
