Powerless

nobody notices the fear in her eyes,
the smile she wears is just a disguise,
people say shes haunted like that house in the dark,
like that big wooden barn and that old rusty park,
the scars on her skin you stare in disgust,
makes her feel like an ornament covered in dust,
those tears the bruise those broken bones,
caused by those awful words written in stone,
hiding how she feels all the self doubt,
you wonder what its all about,
you say your here to listen but you dont really care,
you pretend to like her but your not even there,
its all just an act the hate for her you hold,
finally the truth unfolds,
head down invisible in the hour,
your mean your cruel you took her power,
shes afraid to stand out or show her face,
what if she doesnt fit in like and alien from space,
you drive her to the edge now thinking of suicide,
its all over now in that moment she decides,
just remember you did this you drove her insane,
you made her hate herself you took over her brain,
i hope you realise what you've done,
the agony you caused her it wasn't fun,
shes not coming back you drove her to rock bottom,
be kind to each otheer dont be rotton,
stopping the bullying could save lives,
give them the love and happiness they've been deprived.
