They call her names
Fat, ugly, crazy, and weird
Funny thing , is she knows how to hide
Hide the depression that no one likes her
Their all fakes
Even her family
Mother drinks so much she ran off my dad and little brother
Step dad hates her as well
He's always trying to touch her and make her feel creepy
It's not her fault
Mom got knocked up
Dad married her
Dad told mom to get an abortion
Mom did not
They lived in a love less marriage for 12 years
Divorce came and left
New step mom
I hate her to
She took my dad away
Even if it's not true, I have to blame someone
Right?
But I blame myself in secret
No one sees the cuts
No one sees me having sex with strangers
To feel love and be wanted
I'm never home
Mom gets so drunk she talks trash to me
Tells me how she wished I was skinny and pretty
Not this fat little girl who is only 14.
