The pain is in his heart
it just wont fade away
it pulls at his emotions
it plays with his mind
why cant he get the love he feels he will never find?
his parents were never there
they always had work or had some excuse
he feels that he was put on this earth for no real significant use
momma wouldnt bake cookies, cakes, or even cook dinner
daddy was always off with his friends
and appeared to be getting thinner
what could he look forward to?
he hated to go home,
he didnt have any friends,
he was always alone.
does life ever get better?
or does it only get worse?
thoughts of ending his life are there
life for him is going to be terse.
she watched him from afar
what could she do to help?
he seemed to be so sweet at school,
she wondered what he really felt.
she walked to his house one day,
it sure took her long enough,
all the way over she pondered what to say
she had to just be tough
as she walked to the door
she heard a faint yelp
she looked around to the garage
wanting to yell for help
she looked at his body
dangling in the air
he was holding a note in his hand
in his mind he thought,
who would care?
she held the note tightly
tears in her eyes
all the way home she ran
why didnt anyone listen to the cries?
the note was never read
its contents the girl would never know
but she could only question
what was really going through his head
