To my dear friend JBrown

I'm sorry that no one was around

I'm sorry I didn't see the tears behind your fake smile, you frowned

I'm sorry I didn't fall in love with you again

I was scared I just didn't want to face disappointment and pain

Why didn't you tell us it was too much for you?

Why didn't you tell us what you were going through?

You didn't share any signs of sadness or depression

I guess it was my test and I failed the lesson

Because I didn't listen, I want you back in this world I roam

Because the child you left behind will someday be grown

And when she learns about you on her own, I pray she doesn't feel disowned

I'd never expect you to take your life

My biggest question is did you think twice?

No letter found no text read so you couldn't write

I guess I'm mad because I thought you'd outlive everybody

And that's what happens when you die in silence

You left with no signs or acknowledgment

I guess I'm sitting here thinking of how things could have went

You're gone and I'm left to sing a song

But without your tenor voice whose going to sing along

You didn't leave memories, you left a few in silent morn

So what should we do? Pray to see you at dawn

You talked me off the ledge when I wanted to commit suicide

So why would you even try, yet you succeeded but I didn't die..

This is to my dear friend JBrown
