the sleepless nights

the missing

the scars

the Grieving

the hate

the betrayal

the loss

the regret

the friendships
that didn't work out

the bullying she receives
like a stab in the heart

the needy
attention-seeking

the learning

will all pay off in the end.

Her only hope is to
leave people better than
she found them to have
her light shine brighter
than the sun even after
she's long gone.
