I didn't even know you, so why did it hurt so much when you died.
I heard these stories & saw these photos, its all it took & i cried.

It felt like the world should have stopped that day.
But life goes on... or so they say.
It wasn't fair, you never really had a chance.
The world gave up on you without a second glance.
You were doomed & surrounded by mayhem...
Or maybe it's jest easier to blame them.

Did you mean to end your life or was it just supposed to be a good time?
This is all so confusing that it's making me rhyme.
When you put that in your body, what was running through your mind?
Because of your addiction you've broken those that you left behind.

They cared about you more than i think you ever knew.
Now that you're gone they think there should have been something they could do.
You made the choice, & chose to risk it all.
Now we're all left to wonder why you made that call.

I'm truly sorry that your life had to cease...
but I pray you're with God & you've finally found peace.
