The Emo Boy

He's the boy with glasses on
and his jet black hair
he sits alone at lunchtime
and looks with a curious stare

other kids think hes different when really were all the same
hes so dark and sensitive
and goes through so much pain

he has no one to talk to
and always gets the blame
for things he never committed to
these people should be ashamed

Theres a once in a lifetime hello
and a wanting to say goodbye
all this boy wants is to be loved
and some friends to be by his side

no one notices when hes not at school
and no one seems to care
to him, every things just so unfair

He slits his wrists, but no one knows
he cuts because he's worthless
hes frustrated and so stressed
and he needs to live and get out of this deep rest
but he cant seem to be happy

Days pass by, and still the same
no one notices, he still gets blamed
one night he walks home again
opens the door to his bedroom
locks it, and sits alone on his bed

He opens a drawer, next to his bed
pulls out a box, and opens the lid
he reaches inside for the bottle of pills
thats what he needs to heal what he feels

He reads his suicide letter with tears in his eyes
"Sorry for everything i haven't done
i wont get in your way
and by the time u read this on my death bed I'll lay
I'm worthless and lonely
so i think this is for the best
i had to kill myself
to put myself at rest"
Love Jeremy

He opens the bottle
and tilts it aside
all the pills come tumbling out
and lay around his bedside

he picks one up, and takes it
not doing any harm
he takes a couple others
and starts to slit his arm

pill after pill
he's losing energy
his eyes are closing
he's leaving our world

theres one pill left
he picks it up
hoping this was it
he swallows the pill and ends his life
knowing that he should

The next day at school
when he wasn't there
no one noticed
and no one cared

The P.A came on and the principal announced

Jeremy Mays has passed away
the principal forces herself to say
We give the Mays ours love and hope
and touch their heart
and touch their soul

Jeremy had a life ahead of him
he wanted to be an artist
his art was so beautiful and courageous
And he had a full imagination

Jeremy wasn't just any kid
he was a kid with a heart
