Gay

"Why?!",

He wants to scream out,

as the tears run down his face,

of course no one accepted him.

I mean,

Who would accept a freak?

He's Gay,

He kept it from the world,

But he didn't hold it quiet tight enough.

Suddenly there were glares,

there were words,

or to put it simply,

there were bullies...

They were suddenly there everyday,

Only to torture him with words and fists.

There's no escape,

because even at home,

he heard the hurtful words,

and the horrible punches.

The bullies,

and his Dad.

His mom left,

he has no one now,

Hes just a freak that no ones loves.

Today's the day.

Hes finally doing it.

Hes gained the courage,

and he made his way to the school.

He'll give them a nice show...

He got there early,

just for this.

He walked up and up the flight of stairs.

Coming out on the roof...

He looked over the bars,

and watched as the students entered the gates.

He took a deep breath.

"No turning back now",

He climbed over the bars,

And looked down at the ground.

Oh how high he was up...

There was no chance of survival..

He let out a pain filled scream,

Before letting himself fall.

He saw the ground approaching rapidly,

before he heard a sickening snap,

and a terrible pain,

before everything turned black,

'I mean this is what you always wanted,

Right?'

The bullies stood there in shock,

They never thought they'd see this,

They didn't think i'd go like this,

oh god the blood was everywhere.

They all felt a terrible ache in their heart,

And wished they could reverse time.

But time doesn't work like that,

No,

It never slows down or speeds up,

and they just took the life of an Innocent boy,

The human life they took,

filled them with grief.

Now they knew,

He would never be able to have a life,

He could never find Love,

And He died only knowing what pain was...

How time takes ones sadness,

and makes it worse.

They finally knew, 

But it was to late to change it now,

maybe he wasn't so different after all,

Maybe he wasn't a freak,

maybe he was like you and me.

But it was much to late to change,

and they had to live with what they did,

now knowing theres never a reset button to life.
