Bubble-letter initials and hearts everywhere,
Secrets thrown about without the slightest of care.
Blissful ignorance to whose hands might this fall,
With reckless abandon she unleashes it all.
Abundant in detail, her secrets revealed,
Her mask is worn well, her darkness concealed.
For the words on these pages don’t match her smile,
Who knew that her nightmares could be so vile?
With voices that tell her that life is a waste,
And memories that leave her used and disgraced.
An internal war fights hard in her heart,
As the pieces of her start breaking apart.
Others aren’t safe when she’s out of her cage,
Secrets, more shocking with each turning page.
The children at school see revenge in her eyes,
Her locker hides a gun, her most treasured prize.
Amy is the worst of the demons in the hall,
She used to be a friend, that’s what hurt most of all.
The rumors felt like punches from brass-knuckled fists,
Her words cut like razors, hard across the wrists.
Anger keeps building, good girl going bad,
She soon will spray the walls, make everyone sad.
Amy, Trista, Kelly, she’s got them in her sites,
Time to spill blood and turn their wrongs into rights.
Diary of a bad, bad girl in a shaken Mothers hand,
Trying to wrap her brain around things she doesn’t understand.
In her daughters purple writing, so loud, she can’t ignore,
She finally hears the cries that she should have heard before.
Mother races fast to school to hold her baby near,
When she sees her daughters face, she finally drops a tear.
She sees Amy, Trista, Kelly, wants to slap them in the face,
Instead she takes her angel in an overdue embrace.
Today there will be no statistics, a mother heard her call,
And the diary of a bad, bad girl helped to save them all.

Lady can you ever write! What an unbelievable message here. You should have a book on a library shelf somewhere. I'm not kidding. You are an awsome writer.!

This is powerful!
I think that this shows what love, or a lack of it can do to a teenager.Todays teens and youth live in a harder world than I did, even though, life could be very tough for a teen then, as well!

These stories you write leave me in awe. I consider myself one of the best at stealing people's shoes, but what you do is amazing. You got a lot goin on in that head of yours. It a familiarity I don't get to see often. Keep inspiring!

I can totally agree with this one. Sometimes parents are blissfully unaware of how their children really feel. I really liked the truthfullness of this piece. Best of Luck.

Excellent write
This is such a good write and also how parents can see when their children needs help if they only paid attention to their slow changing ways . They scream for their help with each turning of each day

Amazing!
Definitly worth the read even if it's a bit long. I personally couldn't tell, because I was caught up in the story. A fantastic rhythmic roller coaster of pure mystery. The ending is absolute brilliance in finding the answer through a bad girls diary.. Even bad girls turn good sometimes, lol.
Even when they don't notice it until it's to late.. 
this was a master piece in all sense of the words. I must definitly applaud this. I also love the picture you have to go along with this diary... lol Did you use the picture for a muse to this piece or was it a little addition to the excitment? All in all 10 fingers and toes straight up! lol you never cease to amaze me. i truly adore your writing. So i shall read in moderation and savor every last drop. Thanks for letting me read!
