I bet you didn't know about him,
About how he was so alone
About how he never got enough sleep
About why he always wore a hoodie
I bet you didn't know about
The bruises and the burns
I bet you didn't know why he
hung himself from that
tree by the lake.
I bet you didn't know about the abuse
the marks his stepfather made
the marks his mom would say was an
"accident"
