Not a suicide

Her wrist was knitted

Blood was oozing

A tear escaped from her eyes

Her lips still has a wry smile.

When she was 15,

She kept asking who she was;

Why did she exist?

What her importance was.

When she was 16,

She still had the same questions.

Scarred by the lies.

Hunted by the whispers.

Befriended with problems,

Pulled down by sadness

Caressed by the darkness

Suffered in the abyss

Dark circles around her eyes

Caused by the sleepless nights

Bloodstains in her bed sheets

'Cause of her knitted wrist.

She was anxious

She was in pain

No one loved her

No one cared

Someone told her to ask for help

So she did even in despair

But she ended up being judged

Being misunderstood where she ended.

You set some standards.

She didn't meet.

You cared for nothing

But her mistakes.

You knew she was dying every day,

But you only laughed at her;

You told her she was insane

You laughed at her 'cause of being too lame.

Then she held a blade and cut her wrist

Until her heart stopped the beat.

Not a suicide but a murder

It was you who killed her-the society.
