She was beautiful,
Red hair,
fair skin,
freckles.
She was always happy,
Always smiling....
I never noticed that her smile was too tight,
That she wasn't alright.
It wasn't until I saw the cuts on her wrists
that i even knew her sadness exists,
But she never admitted to me just how sad she had been
didn't she know lying was a sin.
I tried to get her to stop
cleaning up the red with a mop
telling an adult to get her some help
to hear her cries or her distant yelp.
But there was nothing I could do
as she was suffering, I was too
My friend had never been so blue
But there was nothing I could do.
So one night, she took her life,
ending the line with a knife
she had surrendered the fight
and decided, herself, to smite.
How could she leave me alone like that?!
In a place so cold and hollow
Everyday I wonder around,
my tears I'm trying to swallow.
But this empty feeling inside my heart
Will never go away
Because never again will I see my best friend,
smile through another day.
