She shattered her picture because she was mad.
She did it because everyone said she was ugly.
She did it because she hated herself.
She did it because others wouldn't see the real her.
She shattered it because she was sad.
She shattered her picture and her wonderful memories shattered with it.

Yet another seventh grade poem. After reading through my poetry book from then, I have come to the conclusion that I was going through a troubled state of my childhood.
