Didnt know What to Do

I never thought
it would be the last
time i would see you
dead hand of the past

the train ride up
felt so very long
hold back my tears
trying to be strong

the sky is dull
perfect shade of overcast
one reason we are mournful
together abased

for one person
we are all here
all in the same place
shedding the same tears

the death of our friend
who stripped himself of existence
he didn't stop half way
he was full of persistence

as the coffin is lowered
i can hear his mothers cries
she screams for her dead son
and says her last goodbyes

his father
trying to look so strong
thoughts of a dying son
he wants to be home where he belongs

friends and family
gather around
saying their last goodbyes
on this burial ground

for a son and friend lost
the reason no one knew
he was just scared and confused
a young boy who didn't know what to do
