Impact
Stars shine and glitter
Everyone sees their beauty
you try and shine
but your flaws and insecurities are pointed out
you're judged and criticized
No one can see your potential
You hide
You hide in the darkness of your room
You spend your nights crying
Your pillow is soaked by the time you fall asleep
You come out of your shell and try
You're put down and teased
You start thinking
Underestimating your worth
You decide to end it all
Luckily for you, it worked
Your sister finds you
She falls apart
Her guidance is gone
She goes down a road of cocaine and whiskey
Your mom is heart broken
Her baby is gone
She doesnt sleep at all
Her nights are filled with crying and funeral plans
Your dad doesnt know how to cope
He starts having affairs
He sleeps around with a Co-worker
He eventually is caught by your mother
The girl who would try and talk to you
Is lonely and wishes she could have gotten to you
She organizes a walk for you
The whole town shows up
The person you like
Was head over heels for you and you never knew
They cry everynight
They wish they had the courage to tell you and possibly save you
The school sets up counselors
They put up poster trying to help
You'll never see it though
Because you my friend, are dead
