Did he want to die?

A few weeks ago I saw flowers ,
laid on a bridge not far from where I live.
I read in the paper some lad died at that spot ,
no accident I guess he just had nothing left to give.
He was so young at only 23 years old ,
so much more of life he had to see.
I wonder if he really wanted to die ,
and from this life did he really want to be free?.
There was more in the paper this week ,
the recent death of his gran had left him so upset.
So he hung himself from the bridge with his belt ,
time is a healer his gran I am sure he would never forget.
That poor lad must have have felt so alone ,
was there really no-one he could have talked to?.
His mother is left to grieve for him and properly wondering ,
what could she have done to help him through.
