Where were you?
When I cried in silence
With fear of exposing my tears
With fear of letting my voice out
“What will people say?”
Is all I could think of
Where were you?
When they called me names
With their sharp voices
Names that cut deep
Causing uncomfortable sensations in my body
Where were you?
When I laid there inert
With tears rolling down my cheeks and
And the vociferation of my thoughts
Where were you?
When that rope separated my soul from the body
Death calling me in great excitement
Look at you now
In tears, trying to convince yourself that you cared
You had a chance to be there
But you ignored it
Now as I lay lifeless
Detach yourself from those emotions
Allow my soul to rest
Don’t cry for me
