SHE DOESNT SMILE

A single swing
the school bell rings
the rain clouds rip open
its dark
its cold
she sits alone
she does not smile
swinging back and fourth
tears hidden by the raindrops falling
the wind whispers malevolently
her matted hair covers her pale ghostly pace
so fragile
so hollow
others laugh and play and smile
sicked at the thought she silently screams
misunderstood
she is alone in the crowd
medicated
twisted
barbed
higher and higher she swings
shes lost her control and sanity
throwing away all that was yesterday
driving her young mind into madness
blood cascades down her small wrists
a crimson river flows
she takes her last breath as she falls

she smiles
