A young man almost nineteen

by Angela   Feb 27, 2004


Sometimes so sad, sometimes real mad
SO much going on inside his head
He loses control and makes a mistake
One that could eventually take his life away
He confides his scary secret in me
I cry for fear of losing him someday
My friend, the potential love of my life
To him he means nothing, to him he's not worth the fight
To mean he means everything so I will try to shed some light
I will comfort him, love him, tell him it's alright
How can he not see what a wonderful person he is?
Why would he want to not try for happiness?
He's beautiful to me in every possible way
I wish I could declare my love to him everyday
But he is with someone who makes him as happy as "he" can be
So I will step aside and watch my world slip away from me
He smiles fake smiles, tries to hide the tears
All of his insecurities, all of his fears
Only a young man, almost nineteen
