The girl with the mean laugh

She has laughs 
a mean laugh
and it is meant just to hurt you
and she knows that laugh all too well
because she did not invent this
laugh
she had learned it 
from people around her
and she realized that they weren't laughing with her
and a mean laugh is the only thing
protecting her 
from pain
