Death
Such a funny concept
The people who say they would take their own lives if you took yours
Almost to quickly
Most you know are fibs
Others may be true
You ponder about death
So many times a day
Almost a routine.
You scare the person who loves you the most
And you do it again

Clutching onto yourself
Shaking violently in the shower
A simple thought
It was just a simple thought
Only one persons words could ever calm your soul
But your hands are to afraid to reach out
Because as a child if we reached out at the wrong time
A slap would correct our behavior

But they are worried about you
They care
You are to scared to bother them
But the simple words still mean you're alive

Death is almost funny
To you and me it's almost like a game
A topic that can bring tears
And still strikes it's pain
I saw you cry that day
As my thoughts were racing on
You know I've never tried it
So why did you think it was so wrong?
I held you close and tight
And made sure everything was alright

You make them promise to stay
When even you can't promise the same.
