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
The wind howls across the plain
Buffeting all the trees equally
Branches sway in odd disdain
Leaves flutter ceaselessly
Listen man,
Latley it's been to much an...
My head has been spinning like a fan,
Im bad at cardio so why did i think
i could've outran..
These problems.
Got my foot on the edge looking down,
The night falls,
In a heavy, suffocating cloak,
We are lost
The light for which you
pray for,
flares once, then dies
taken by your depression
All hope flickers out,
The smoke engulfs your body
I cough in disgust
“that'll kill you.”
And you respond with a smirk
What is it in my soul that you want?
Why do you continue to take from my garden?
Is it comforting you? making you happy?
Wake up at night
all I can see is your face
ten years and still not right
I wake up and think about
if someday in the void of bright white light
You've tried to be happy,
but you cannot do it,
the darkness is just to dark,
you talk and talk,
but all it does is makes depression worse,
you've tried to be with people that you love and that love you,
My lifeline is getting shorter and shorter
One of these nights will be the last for me
But you're having the time of your life
I wish I could absorb this from you
The light at the end is getting bigger
You were the “p” in pterodactyl:
Silent, but important
You set things into your own stride
I couldn’t help but stare and notice you oddity
You rebellious
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet, and perhaps so are you
But the roses have wilted
The violets have died
And the sugar has spilled
Dear Xxxxx,
You weren’t there when I got the call with the news
about you
You weren’t there to see your friends gather round
over you
