Why, God, Why ?

by Elise   Jan 4, 2005


I will start this poem
With tears in my eyes
I will sart this poem cuz
I saw someone commit suicide.

I saw him at the window
I saw that guy jumping
I whispered to myself "No!"
I heard his dreadfull screaming.

He lended on a car
Just in front of me
I wish I would of been far...
Everything got blurry.

While I watched him die
I started to think so fast
I started to cry
I thought about my past.

If life is so short
Why can\\\'t people stand it ?
If life is so short
Why do people hate it ?

I watched this man
Who was about 20
I walked away and
Asked God, sadly :

Oh, tell me God, why ?
Why did you make me be there ?
Why did you trouble my mind ?
While you sat there and stared...

***This is a true story, when I was 12 I saw someone jump from the 6th floor.***
