(UNDERGOING EDITING)
"All I wanted was a ear to hear,
But, all i ever got was the pain I couldn't bear.
I believed you, I trusted you,
I put myself in your shoes and,
Tried to see the world,
But you failed to do the same.
All I did was to be understood,
Accepted the way I am,
But, all I did was being ridiculed and,
Shamed for the thoughts I have.
You made me hate the girl in the mirror.
A tender soul who didn't deserve your calloused words.
You were supposed to build me, mould me,
But, all you did was break me.
But, it's okay after all, I'm just mourning the loss of you."
Her delicate handwriting was over all the small paper, I could also see drops of tears. She probably had cried while writing this beautiful poem. If I ever had a chance to show her parents what kind of harm they have done to their daughter, I would. And, I will.

A/N : This book focuses on mental illness too, so I won't mention any trigger warnings. But if depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, ED, PTSD, ADHD and more mental illnesses trigger you, please don't read this book :D
A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy.

"If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him.
"No" I shook my head bravely.
"If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always.
"Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me.
The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone.
