Once there was a boy

Who sat all alone

On top of a roof top

Over looking the world

He would sit there for hours

Admiring the stars

Quietly thinking

How beautiful they are

He knew a girl

Who sat all alone

On top of her roof top

Over looking her world

She was higher than he was

Perched up on some clouds

Every night she would watch him

Wishing she was still around

He would silently pray

For her fire to burn

But every night

She would never return

So one day he gave up

Selected his knife

Looked down at his paper

Where he wrote his goodbyes

"Dear father, dear mother,

Dear sister, dear brother,

I'm sorry I had to leave you

I just could go another day without her"

He put down the note

Clutching his knife tight

He shut his eyes slowly

And whispered goodbye

Once there was a girl

Who sat all alone

On top of her rooftop

Over looking her world

She knew a boy

Who felt all alone

He longed for her rooftop

Now he is right at home
