A Boy Not Long Ago

There was A boy not long ago

So broken inside

Damaged from head to toe

Something inside him had died

When he looked in the mirror

He couldn't be found

Death seemed so near

With no friends around

I'm not needed here

He writes as his hands shake so fast

The page was soaked in tears

Remembering his past

All of his fears soon to be gone

The next day at school

So happy he seemed

A plan was in place

A night he dreamed

He wouldn't have to face

As he took his final breath

And said his goodbyes

Hanging from the ceiling

He went to the skies
