Student sitting distressed on hallway bench beside scattered papers
A student sits apart in a school hallway, appearing overwhelmed as adults walk away.

You had the nerve to say what you did

to a teenage girl

who was impressionable

self consciousness of her self

Now as a adult she has to

unlearn the hurtfull words that you said

to believe

that she is enough

that she is pretty

that she is wanted and love

that people do care for her.
