Misconceptions
December 23, 2013
Everyone sees
He’s smiling, happy.
Wow, they wonder, he’s happy all the time!
And so he was.
He definitely was talkative
Nice.
Easygoing.
Approachable.
Everyone loved his happy nature.
He even did well in school! They said.
Wow. He’s going places.
Everyone smiles, everyone wonders
How far can this boy go?
Or so they think.
Dark.
Depressed.
Doubtful.
He felt trapped.
No one.
No body.
No thing.
Knew who he was, truly.
No one knew
No one cared
After all, he had it made.
Which is why everyone was surprised
When they found out
About
His
Death.
