Dear Stranger

Dear Stranger

I heard the news today
You decided to end it all
You tried once and failed
But determined to succeed
You tried again and a second chance
was all you needed

I heard you were on suicide watch
and you still managed to die
What was the reasoning behind it
To make you give up on life

2 pairs of jeans
an ingenious noose
I bet that's what they thought
when they cut your body loose

Can you imagine the pain your mother feels
You were her surprise miracle
how is she supposed to deal?
When you aren't there to make her smile

I don't even know you
And i still cry for your lose
You were only a year younger than i
It's just a simple thought

I wish i knew you
Because i could have tried to help
Switching your direction before
you left to go to he**

Dear stranger
You don't know my name
But i know yours
I'm sorry grace
I'm so sorry you had to try and even life's score...

    Very sad, gave me shivers. Unique way of looking at the topic of suicide, I like that.
