Let me tell you a short story
About these two young boys.
They were best friends
Maybe even brothers in a past life.
They shared the same experiences,
They didn't keep any secrets from each other.
Maybe the expression "best friends" was even invented for them.
Then one day,
One of them tried to end his own life,
But the other put sense into him
And made him realize he was worth so much more.
Two years passed and they weren't as close,
They drafted apart like most friendships do.
The second boy, the one who saved his friend in the past,
Had a lot of trouble dealing with everyday problems.
I guess this time, he was in a lot of pain himself.
And one crazy day,
Without anybody knowing,
He let himself out of his balcony.
His former friend was devastated.
How could I've not been there ? he kept thinking.
More than a year has passed
And still he's in pain.
He can't imagine what happened.
Even worse, he blames himself.
Maybe for putting the idea of suicide into his mind.
A strong young man
Who seems tough from the outside,
Cries from the inside.
I really don't know how this story will end
And personally, I'm afraid.
I know every part of his story and would feel responsible if anything happens to him now.
He's such a lovely person,
But with a broken heart.
Pray that this story has a good ending
That the struggles will soon be replaced by moments of joy and happiness.
Some of us need them...
I know this poem doesn't rhyme at all, but unfortunately it's based on a true story and I can't think of the aesthetic of it right now...
