His eyes were red
His eyes were red from crying
He didn't go to school
A bottle in his shaking hand
pills spilled across the floor
He thought his life was pointless;
He couldn't take it anymore
His parents said they loved him
His chest heaved with the thought
Why could he never feel just good enough?
The pills were smooth as they were forced down his throat
He swayed a little as his head began to float
He sat down on the floor, saw the bathroom tile for the last time
He thought once he was gone, nobody would mind
His head drifted through the clouds-
He was flying
Then he fell.
