You could've stopped him.You

You could've stopped him.

You could've given him a reason to live.

You watched his tormentors and stood by,

saying nothing.

The day he didn't show up,

his bullies smirked

No one seemed to worry.

Two days later,

we all found out,

he took his life.

He was found in the bathroom with an apology note laying next to him

It said, please forgive me, no one would do anything and i couldn't take it.
