remember him
the boy that sits in the very back
the one who nobody talks to
the boy who goes home
to see his mother beaten on the ground
the boy who drinks everyday
to try and erase all the pain
the boy who gets mean looks
only because he has holes in his shoes
and ripped up pants
the boy who nobody cares about
the boy who tucks a gun
in the front of his pants
and a knife in his pocket
the boy who secretly cries
but you'd never guess it
the boy who is beaten up
by his step dad everyday
the boy who gets bullied
and tripped in the hallway
the boy who is ready to give up
to stop fighting, and never wake up
remember him.

remember her
the girl who always has her head down
the girl who cuts her wrists
the girl whose mom never even looks at her
the girl who is laughed at
by preppy girls at school
because her hair is messy
and her teeth aren't perfect
the girl who pops diet pills
the girl who is hurt by her boyfriends
the girl who gets high
to try and feel happy
the girl who if you looked into her eyes
you'd see just how much pain
she has deep in her soul
you'd see a girl
whose dying inside
screaming, begging, somebody, anybody
to really love her, to tell her it will be okay
the girl who has the bottle of pills in her hand
ready to end it all...
remember her.

please don't forget
please help us
we are dying
we are so alone
please don't leave us
please...love us
we don't care who you are
help us...before its too late.
please.
