Committed Suicide
by Jessica Marie Addario
(Lynn, Massachusetts)
Why?
Why would you ever take your life?
I thought you said you stay with me
Just days before that tragic night
You hugged me tight and said I'll always be here, anytime you need to talk
But you took your life and left me alone in this cruel world
I watched as you took a stand
Now your mom let them burn you to sand
I miss you terribly
It's raining because I miss you,
I scream for you to come back
But this will never this happen
I cry and in my mind I see you slowly fading away day after day
I scream come back, come back to me please
But I've got to face the heart-wrenching fact that you are never coming back.
