I smile during pictures. I smile ’cause I can. I smile when my best friend Becca, takes my hand. I smile when I see you, because thats what is polite. I smile during the day. But I don’t smile during night. I step off the bus, and head to the house. I say “Thanks for the ride” and look down on my phone, more drama has arouse. I close the door slowly, hearing it creak. The hardwood floor echoes my sobs and my shreaks. I am not happy with my looks or my smile, they made me insecure. I question life for a while. I am home alone, I slam my bedroom door shut, I lay on my floor crieng out loud that im a slut. My mascara is running, my backpack is spilled open, the heart you broke a long time ago is increasingly broken. My hair is in a knot, my face is dark red, I keep crieng and crieng hoping soon I’ll cry enough I’ll be dead. I scream to the Lord that im a sad mistake, the pain is intense, and i have made all the mistakes i can make. I take off my sweater and throw it aside, I reach for my scissors, and pray I wont survive. Just as i cut my arms and text Becca “Never Cry”, I hear my old friend, telling me otherwise. My friend that has passed, back in fourth grade. I can hear her smooth voice, running through me like lace. The air is warm and soft, and my tears subside. I see her faint face, why is she crieng? She says “You have a meaning, you fill people with laughter, if you leave the Earth, many will follow after.” Her light body fades away, and i drop the scissors, my jaw is frozen and my heart is singing. The next day, people laugh and call me a fail, I look them in the eyes and say “Your judgements have gone stale”. They choke on their words and snicker away, I am the boss. I am damn right here to stay. They can stare and point and crack jokes till they drown, to me it appears their checking me out. Got a problem with me, I’ll settle it fast. Come over here and tell me whats so fuuny. I want to laugh. Seeing your face now makes me throw up, to think I was friends with you.. SHUTUP!? You and your clique can go laugh at yourseleves.. I am not the fool. I am myself. I am not a mistake, I have a strong meaning, whats my name? Maddie the queen.

Wow girl you are on fire, make sure you keep that blaze alight. No matter what unbalances you keep steady. You can smile again. No can tell you what to do, and no one has the right to make you feel inferior.
You are special
