She was the perfect student

Straight As, always listening

Happy-go-lucky, laughing along

Spending her nights out with friends

The perfect girl, you would say

Pretty and popular, attractive

Boys couldn't get enough

She had one of those faces people trust

She was confided in and adored

Friendly and rich, threw parties

Messed up the house but sorted it

Parents knew she was wonderful.

But she went missing in the spring

Bag, clothes and possessions gone

Nothing much left behind

But a few short notes

To her mother, saying 'sorry'

To her best friend, saying 'I'll miss you'

To the only boy who didn't care, saying

'I loved you and you never knew'.

She was found the next morning

3am her parents got the call

Found hanging from a tree

Written on her left wrist the words:

'I'm Sorry'

On her right arm:

'You never saw my pain'
