Everybody knew they were different.
She sat infront of the class,
He sat at the back, and listened to everybody talk.
Everybody thought they were different;
Until he sat beside her, in front of the class.
People saw them walking in the halls,
They didn't smile, they didn't talk,
But they held each other's hand.
Everybody saw them after school,
He held her hand and they heard the "I love you's".
She smiled and said "I love you too." Everybody saw them after class,
Walking in the park, holding each others hands.
They could hear their talk and their stunning smiles.
Everybody saw him in class,
Sitting next to the empty seat
Where she used to be.
After class he didn't talk,
All he did was walk.
Everybody cried at the funeral
Of the suicidal girl that used to be beside him.
Everybody was shocked,
When he killed himself,
And left a note that said: "you should have learned how to love yourself."
