There was girl, that sat in the corner, about sixteen
When she laughed and smilled her face would gleem
From way back to when she was a young girl
She had that glisten in her eye just like a pearl
She always had that one a aspiration
Which was to make people happy, give out attention
To be someone who cared, instead of being fake
To be the one who always gave and never take
But as time went on, things started to change
Things she thought back then, really arent the same
She messed up her sweet life, just to fit the mould
For some friends who would leave her standing in the cold
Her biggest fear was being recjected
But in the end she'll always end up neglected
Posting pictures, that her mother would be vexed if she saw
Just for a 'like' from a boy that she once saw
She turned her self slowly into something she's not
Desprete for some random guys to tell her "youre hot"
But the attention she craved, never came through
And all the dreams she once wished, never came true
If you asked how she was, she would always say "fine"
But no one really knew, how she was slowly dying inside
She went out to parties and started drinking
But in her head, she really wasnt thinking
She started to sleep around, just to feel close
She was told not to by the ones who loved her the most
The thing is, she didnt know who really loved her
Because she was so caught up in all this popularity hunger
She was being manipulated by this thing called society
Causing all this pain, depression and anxiety
One night she thought "enough is enough"
That was the night she turned to drugs
She was sitting in a alley with a guy she met the other night
In her head this seemed perfectly alright
She finally got attention and started to feel loved
But what she didnt know her life was about to be shoved
It was to late to back out, his hands were already down her pants
He had his hand over her mouth so she couldnt shout
She laid their silently and still, wishing it would be over
Wishing she could go back to when she was younger
She realised all what she did was totally wrong
But she kept on thinking to herself she has to be strong
All of a sudden, there was nothing but silence
She opened her eyes to see nothing but darkness
She sat up and tried to compose herself from that ordel
But deep inside she knew what happend wont heal
She could see a dark figure slowly walking away in the distance
No one around to help, or give her some assistance
She limped back to a place she called her home
Which was only concrete floor which was hard as bone
She fell down crying, telling herslef little lies
That "everything will be fine" as she wiped her eyes
She looked to the left where she saw a sharp bladed knife
And that was the end to her messed up life

Very deep, definitely keep up writing whether it's stories or poems. Sometimes it's best to look within ourselves during the absence of happiness, as others can take advantage of it's loss. Looking forward the next ✌️
This is a very sensitive poem, and I think you are great with words- and should continue writing! Keep it up!
A good write which relates to so many in the same situation.
