A Common Day

We arrive at school

Then we say hello

We go about our day

We both leave school

Then we say goodbye

We head on home

 

This is our common day

Like most friends it makes us happy

You could say we have a strong bond

Two buddies just hanging out

A common day for common folk

Just two of a kind

 

We arrive at school

Then we say hello

We go about our day

We both leave school

You don’t say goodbye

Something is wrong

 

What has happened?

Our routine has changed

Why did you change it?

Did I do something wrong?

You look sad

I will talk to you tomorrow

 

I arrive at school

I can’t say hello

You are not there

I leave school

I can’t say goodbye….ever again

 

Why did you take your life?
