Goodbye
January 3, 2017
Bye.
Happy
Is what they see
But on the inside
He’s begging
Please
Looking
At what
he’s done
He begins
To Cry
Slowly
Fading away
He whispers
Goodbye.

What inspired me to write "Bye." is suicide is on the rise. I hear and see tragedies everyday. I feel that death is a common part of life, but so many people take it early. Suicide is related to teens in my opinion because it is "the way out." I hope when people read my piece they keep fighting because although they may feel it is the only way they pass the pain to other people who do love them.
