BRAND NEW BEGINNING

BRAND NEW BEGINNING

A Poem by SJ Mullins
"

I've often been the butt of other's jokes. This poem stems from that.

"
She hangs her head
Hair in her face
Wishing she was dead
Feeling out of place.

She shuffles along
Looking at the ground
Will she ever belong
Without feeling bound?

A low self-esteem
Haunts her everyday
In her daydream
She’s often asked to play.

Instead, she walks alone
Slow and aimlessly
No friends to call her own
Kids taunt her shamelessly.

The next day is the same:

She hangs her head
Hair in her face
Wishing she was dead
Feeling out of place

All she needs
Is just one friend
To plant the seeds
Showing her it isn’t the end…

But a brand new beginning!~

A sad write, how a little kindness would go a long way! Life is cruel and so are people!

just one friend...just one act of kindness from someone, one positive word....

we often don't realize what kind of effect we can have on another---

and low self-esteem runs rampant these days..people just judge and condemn others all too often....and make them feel so low.

i like this expression here.
