My Freaking Evil Poetry

She Wasn't Always This Way

She wasn't always this way. So dark and isolated, so quiet and stand-offish.

She wasn't always this way. She was once lively and bright, once happy and surrounded by light, and by love.

...But a turn of events can always change the way someone acts...looks...lives.

She wasn't always this way. But her once gleaming world came crumbling down and around her...leaving her in the mess.

The people watch her with wonder.

They don't understand, only some.

The ones who knew her, the ones who loved her, the ones who cared.

The ones who say, "she wasn't always this way."

I wrote this my 8th grade year (2013-2014). It was for a creative writing assignment my student teacher assigned to us. We were allowed to write whatever the hell we wanted.

This is was she wrote in pen at the bottom:

"Skyler, your poem gave me chills...very moving."

~ I was very touched by her words ^-^~
