She walks down the hall with her head held high
Her life looks perfect and her popularity grows
She smiles bright and is friendly to everyone
Her appearance turns the head of every guy

She heads to a party on Friday night
Her friends get drinks and start to dance
She sees a cutie across the room
Her cheeks turn red as he stares right back

She quickly checks her makeup and her hair
Her heart beats fast as he heads her way
She lets him lead her towards a room
Her nightmare begins as soon as he closes the door

She shows up at school facing a sea of gossip
Her eyes are glued to floor counting tiles
She knows what they've heard and seen
Her assault was recorded and sent out

She hides in the bathroom her tears uncontrollable
Her reputation ruined sinking to the bottom of the social ladder
She has no one on her side and she is all alone
Her thoughts are dark and deadly

She goes home early to escape all the stares
Her cabinet full of meds and closet hides a gun
She sits on her bed numb and terrified
Her mind is chaotic, and her heart is shattered

She realizes everyday will be torture
Her peers judging her every move
She is the girl they call a slut
Her eyes close as the shot echoes

She falls to the floor in a puddle of red
Her lifeless body limp and cold
She felt the only choice was to end it all
Her decision seemed forced and rash

She is a victim of assault and bullying
Her parents beg the school to take action
She withers away in a coffin underground
Her life without value and her virtue stolen

She won't be there when justice is served
Her attacker charged and imprisoned
She might be alive if someone had intervened
Her life cut short by inaction and defeat

She isn't the only soul to suffer this fate
Her story is one we know all know too well
She is a daughter, a friend, a niece, a sister
Her death is tragedy so where's the prevention

She was beautiful, smart and caring
Her goals and aspirations were limitless
She was compassionate selfless and loyal
Her presence will be a hole in the heart of this world
