A daughter wrote a poem about her family,
how much she loved everyone,
how much she cared;
Showed it to her father who looked and said,
"That's awesome! Great job!"
She smiled because her message got across.

A girl wrote a poem about her friends,
how much she appreciated them,
how much she cared;
Showed it to her best one who smiled and said,
"That's amazing! Thank you so much!"
She grinned back because they knew what it was for.

A person wrote a poem about her life,
how it was starting to get difficult,
how she needed some support;
Showed it to her mother who glanced and said,
"Oh, that's nice, I suppose."
She stared back and walked away, sighing.

A corpse wrote a poem about itself,
how it didn't want to live anymore,
how it might do something it'll regret;
Showed it to her last resort who didn't look, just crumpled it up and said,
"Nobody cares."
With a shot, she dropped to the floor.
