Who will stand
For the girls with broken hearts
And too much make-up and too-short skirt
Who cry for something better
Than petty drunk - 'it was just one night' - love

Who will scream
For the whisky breath boys
Who broke hearts to hide
How scared they really are
That you'll find out who they really are

Who will fight
For the skinny girls obsessed with numbers
Never quite low enough
And they want shoulder blades and pelvic bones
And beauty and disgust

Who will speak
For the kids who stay silent
And hide bruises under pretty clothes
With smiles that break your heart
When you look into their eyes

Who will reach
For tobacco-breath girls
With combat boots and a fuck off glare
To hide nightmares from the past
Because no one will get close again

Who will smile
At the ones with tear stained cheeks
And long sleeeves all year 'round
Who are told it's 'just a phase'
When they know that they are dieing
And destruction will be cause of death
...We were broken

Inspired by a poem by KingDuncan.

I really can;t write at the moment. School is stressing me like crazy and I'm just trying to catch up and keep afloat.
