Poetry by Emily

This is dedicated to all kids out there who are bullied and feel the only way out is suicide. Somebody does care! Always remember that.

I got the inspiration for this poem from the book, "You Don't Know Me" by David Klass. It is about a teenage boy who is abused by his step-father and is truly amazing. If you are someone you know is being abused you must tell somebody. I know you probably think there is no hope or that nobody will believe you but trust me, somebody will and they will help you.

Hey! I wrote this when my best friend for 6 years choose a group of popular girls over me, and I had to watch her change, over the course of a couple months, into somebody totally different.

I used to look up at the stars at night and think. I wrote this a little before I started going out with my wonderful boyfriend and I hope it helps all of the people out there who are like me when I was lonely.
