It’s crazy how you can see someone once a week
And not know anything about them
I believe in fate
How everything happens for a reason
That everyone has a different perception
How someone can smile in your face
But cry themselves to sleep

Depression is drowning in tears
Late at night
When no one is around
Hoping, Waiting, Praying, for everything to be okay
Sometimes things get better
They often get worse

Mental illness is the worst kind of illness
Suffering like you’re bleeding constantly and can’t stop
This pain in your chest no one can feel 

I miss you
But, I could never hate you for what you did.
The pain you felt, I have felt before.
I should’ve never been mad at you for leaving
But I can’t say it’s been easy

I know what it feels like to be trapped.
Trapped in your own mind,
with your own thoughts

Friendship should be cherished
You should be grateful for everything you have
Never take anything for granted. Because, 
Before you know it, it could be taken away

You meet the good friends young,
People you know are going to be around for a while
I met Destinee in 1st grade
We went to the same church,
I’d like to say this was all apart of God’s plan

Destinee was honest.
She always told it like it was
A “the truth hurts” kind of person

Destinee was so strong
After all the pain she felt,
I don’t think she’s weak for giving up.
She was hurting,
She couldn’t take it anymore.

Destinee was caring,
She had the biggest heart,
She didn’t want anyone to feel how she felt

Destinee committed suicide
On March 19, 2016
I knew she was gone before she really was
But I begged God to bring her back
I begged him to not take her away
God didn’t answer my prayers

Never take anything for granted. Because, 
Before you know it, it could be taken away

Let’s talk about giving up
How you think there's nothing left to live for
Let’s talk about pain
How suicide takes it away
And gives it to someone else
