the hallway went silent as he strutted down
he could feel the sickening glances and smirks burning him down
but he managed to suck in a deep breath
though he knew he was just feeble
weak
ugly
and fat
time froze then and there
he realised his yes were watery
and tears began to stream down
his footsteps scurried
his heart racing
he sat on the floor, crying
running his almost skeletal fingers through his hair
a scratch on the wrist was all that he needed
to remind himself
that he was just another number
and another stupid toy
another worthless boy
with nothing but dull eyes
and ugly scars
