I loved the way you'd smile It could light up the whole town Although I haven't seen it in quite awhile I loved the way you'd laugh It was so happy, so true But I didn't know what you put yourself through I loved the colour of your faded blue eyes They seemed to make the world disappear Little did I know you didn't want to be here I loved the way you'd hold my hand When I was feeling low But I didn't know you'd soon let go I loved the sound of your voice When you called me late at night But I didn't know you would soon end your fight I loved the way your eyes lit up When you heard your favouite song You haven't listened to it in so long I loved the way you'd write down all your feelings In the journal under your bed Did all those thoughts really go through your head? I loved the way I thought I knew you We were supposed to best friends Why would you let that end? But I didn't love how you faked your smile and your laughter was always forced I didn't love how your cheeks were stained with tears and gaining weight became your biggest fear I didn't love the fact that you stopped eating and never left your room I didn't love how your eyes seemed sad and the fact that nobody knew I didn't love how you marked up your wrist with a knife and a blade and the last choice that you made I didn't love how you never got help, because you said you couldn't be saved I didn't love how you left me, I thought you would stay I didn't love the words you wrote on the day you said goodbye and the fact that you always cried I didn't love the fact that you didn't answer my calls that afternoon I didn't love how I found you with a gun to your head I didn't love how I was too late, you were already dead -Becca Harris

why did you have to leave
