her blood is on your hands

This is for everyone

Who has criticized

The body 

Of a child

 

Today 

An eleven-year-old girl

Is sitting in a hospital bed

Because she can’t eat a meal

Without feeling guilty

 

I hope

You know

Her blood 

Is on

Your hands

 

You have taken everything from me.

 

You have taken my sister;

 

My beautiful, sweet little sister

Is sitting in a hospital bed

Because of the words you said

The scars you have inflicted on her mind

 

She never deserved this,

She never deserved this.

 

You have taken everything from her.

 

I hope

You know

Her blood

Is on

Your hands
