Looking up and out

September 26, 2009
By Anonymous

I can't believe this happened
Why did you do this to me?
I thought I could solve everything
Now I realize I was wrong
I've never been perfect all along
You took your life
Cutting a hole deep in my heart
I wish I could just see your face and know you're in a better place
Oh we love you so David

David, a boy at my high school commited suicide a few weeks ago and this is my way of letting go of what happened. I feel as though this is my fault but I've realized there was nothing I could've done.
