The Girl

By Destiny Ramirez

(In Honor of a Friend)

The girl that smiles

The girl that laughs

The girl with a perfect body

The girl that everyone thought was okay

The girl that cuts herself

The girl that was abused by her family

The girl that took pills

The girl that everyone thought was okay

The girl with tons of friends

The girl with a perfect boyfriend

The girl with friends that talk bad about her

The girl with the boyfriend that raped her

The girl that everyone thought was care-free

The girl that concealed it with a smile

The girl that smiles
