DEEP SORROW
I read the news today
Another teenage girl just passed away
I saw the suicide not somewhere on page eight
She said she can no longer face the hate
She said all her hope had gone away
A news reporter went and interviewed some people at her school
Most of them didn’t know her name
And the people who did, acted the same
In the note she said, that no matter how hard she tried
The people at her school never paid her any mind
She tried to make friends but they never had the time
To say hi to her
Or make her feel like she existed
So she took that gun and put it to her head and pulled the trigger
Just a newspaper ad no one really missed her
But just remember she had a mom
Who will never be the same
All cause we never took the time to learn her name
So, the next time you see that girl walk down the hall
Or sitting alone in your class
Why don’t you take a minute to ask?
How was her day
You could just save a life that way
