You say Id be better off without you
and Im sorry sweetie
But I laughed out loud
cause its funny how you cant see
there probably wouldnt be a me
without you around
you may not realize this
but so many times
I sat on my bed
three bottles of pain reliever
spread in front of me
deciding which to start with
then I thought of you
and how disappointed youd be
how youd meet me in heaven
and the first thing youd say to me is
I thought you hated people who gave up
how many times I sat in that same situation
looked to my right
and saw the poem you wrote to me
called my friend
do you remember what the last line said?
it said I love you Keleigh
four words put three bottles of pills
back in the cupboard
I bet you didnt realize you could do that
but think about it
remember that day
I just wanted to give it all up
that day my mom came early for me
and you and me walked by the courtyard
un that little cove
before the senior hallway?
do you remember what you said to me?
you said three words
what about Grace?
I would not have thought of her
never
but three simple words
kept my wrists clean for another night
and Lynne
who was there when I met Addison?
who was there to giggle with me?
and
who was there to see through my lies
who was there to know that mysterious bruise
wasnt because I fell
who was my shoulder?
who held me up through it all?
even when she had her own set of
set of things to deal with?
who cared when no one else did?
who cared when I didnt?
who was the first person I called
when I ran away that night?
why Lynne I do believe
it was you
yes every one of those times
it was you
