I see you sitting on a park bench
Alone
in the pouring rain
As I get closer I hear silent tears
and see a red stained wrist
I have never been more scared in my life
As I run to you
And hold you
your breathing becomes slower
and your eyes flutter
as your pulse begins to fade
the blood is flowing
and staining my white shirt
but I don't care
I start to cry
and I realize I'm too late
I didn't pay attention to the scars
you never cared to hide
I was too caught up in my own world
my own pain
to see the signs
you were alone,
you needed me
and I failed you
I'm as guilty as the next
I soon realize
...Its my fault...
