Miss You

~By Sammyjean


I knew you only by face and not by name,
I wish I knew you a lot better.

For now you can never be truly known by anyone.
Your story is such a sad one but,
I believe everyone is ready to hear it.

You were always smiling around everyone,
That makes me wonder how you felt really
Inside where it counts.
Your name on everyone’s lips
Must not make you proud.

I can not imagine what your parents went through,
And possibly are still are going through,
With their son dead by his own hand
For what reason no one for sure knows,
But the trigger was a girl breaking up with you.

One fact remains,
You forever and always will be,
One of my friends.
