- 9. May.2006 - <br /> <br /> <br />The kids at school were mean to her <br />They called her nasty names <br />The kids at school abandoned her <br />Left her out of all their games <br />The kids at school hurt her badly <br />With each word that cruelly spoke <br />The kids at school were so unloving <br />As they slowly stole her hope <br />The kids at school were never kind <br />They put her through unspeakable hell <br />The kids at school gave up on her <br />So she gave up on herself…<br /><br />Rachel Ann Clark<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poem-self-abandonment/
