Ray

This is the story about a girl named Ray,
So please just listen to what I have to say:
Ray was a good girl, she liked to go to school,
She wasn't all that popular, but she seemed really cool.
She was no different from all her other peers,
She made a lot of good close friends all throughout the years.
Ray had a boyfriend, she knew he was the one,
When they were together they had so much fun.
They were perfect for each other, that's what everyone would say,
He would always make her laugh and make her problems go away.
Everyone thought their love for each other would never end,
But it did the day he told her he just wanted to be friends.
He left her heartbroken, with nothing left to do,
He didn't know how much pain he would put her through.
Then Ray started doing stupid stuff, which was really strange,
Everybody realized she was going through a change.
Before Ray would leave to school she'd kiss her mom and dad,
How could they have not noticed how she looked so sad?
At school she would hang out with friends, they knew something was wrong,
But she would always lie to them to make herself seem strong.
She started to use drugs, smoke and even drink,
She never took the time to stop or to even think.
She stopped doing her schoolwork, her grades quickly went down,
And soon she was known as the door knob in town.
She would have a different guy almost every single week,
People stopped talking to her because she acted like a freak.
She would go out to parties, where she had lots of fun,
Nobody knew that Ray's life was almost done.
Her friends didn't like that she was making herself bleed,
They thought that she was crazy because she smoked weed.
And everyday when Ray came home she would start to cry,
She couldn't take it anymore, poor Ray wanted to die.
And as each painful day would slowly pass her by,
All that she would do is think of ways that she could die.
Her sisters didn't like her, her parents didn't care,
They said she was a disgrace, this to you I swear.
Ray's family didn't know that it caused so much harm,
I guess that's why they never noticed the cuts on her arm.
The things they said left Ray in so much pain,
So everyday the cuts would get closer to her vain.
Every night she would start to cry as she lay in bed,
Just trying to forget all the hurtful things they said.
If only Ray didn't have to treat herself this way,
But she didn't want to be around to live another day.
Then Ray realized things would never be the same,
And all that she was doing was causing the world shame.
Ray went to her room, and quietly closed the door,
And she wondered why she had never felt like this before.
When she lost him, she lost all hope in her worthless life,
He was the one who kept her away from her knife.
Ray knew that it was wrong, but she really didn't care,
Nothing in her way, no one else was there.
She took out her knife, but she wasn't afraid,
She let out a cry as she was stabbed with the blade.
That night her parents found her, their lives falling apart
At the sight of a knife through their daughters heart.
So the next time your with that special someone, be careful what you say,
Because if you break their heart, they will end up dead like Ray.
