Lesson

by Reflection | noitcelfeR   Jun 5, 2005


Another face in the crowd.
Another voice that is too loud.
Another pain in his soul.
Another heart turned to coal.
Another thought in his head.
Another wish he was dead.
Another simple request.
Another hope for the best.
Another word brings him down.
Another smile turned to a frown.
Another slam of his door
Another tear hits the floor.
Another secret plot.
Another lesson to be taught.
Another cut from a knife.
Another waste of a life.
Another grave to make.
Another life to take.
Another body to be buried.
Another burden to be carried.
Another chance at greatness lost.
Another suicide is the cost.
Another thought about what you say
may let someone live another day.

It is about a boy that is made fun of (Another voice that is too loud) and it really hurts him (Another pain in his soul). Eventually, it gets to the point where he does not care who he hurts (Another heart turned to coal), he just wants to die. He goes home and prays for things to get better (Another simple request, Another hope for the best). Nothing gets better (Another word brings him down) and he gives up. He goes to his room and cries (Another slam of his door, Another tear hits the floor). He thinks that if he kills himself, then he can teach people that words can hurt (Another secret plot, Another lesson to be taught). So he committs suicide. His family is crushed (Another burden to be carried). His chance at becoming someone is lost because he wanted to teach people a lesson.
