>>11948120I knew a girl in a psych ward once. She was really short and kind of fat, barcode wrists, maybe 3 years younger than me. Maybe it was because I was fucking around with some other girl and there was this mom-dad dynamic with her as the kid, maybe not, but whenever she'd have breakdowns or get upset I'd try to help her through it. We were in a really poor intercity area so when a lot of the black kids would get into nigga this, nigga that she'd start to cry. I remember holding her head and telling her that she was not at fault for having fucked up brain chemistry. I lied to her face when I told her everything would be okay.
She was 'a trans gay man' so she could fit in to some group, somewhere out there, but it's obvious that her dad hated her for other reasons. She'd talk about running into traffic during rush hour. She gave me her email before I left the ward, and I have it written somewhere. I never had the courage to email her. I know she's dead somewhere out there.
Please, no more dead little girls.
