The Girl Dressed In Black

A Poem

The girl dressed in black
With the bright, stripy socks.
The girl dressed in black
That everyone mocks.
The girl dressed in black,
With long, dark, wavy hair.
The girl dressed in black
With her feelings unspared.
The girl dressed in black,
Happy face painted on.
The girl dressed in black,
She won’t join in the throng.
The girl dressed in black,
Has gone far away.
The girl dressed in black,
She just could not stay.
The girl dressed in black
Slashed her wrists that day.
The girl dressed in black
Is as free as a bird. Gone and released,
The girl dressed in black.
And not nobody missed,
The girl dressed in black,
With long, dark, wavy hair
And those bright, stripy socks…
