I have this friend
she has this pretty smile but deep down i know its fake
her days always break
she acts like she has a perfect life
and acts like nothing goes wrong
but when she calls me up
in the middle of the night
I know somethings wrong
and its too late to lie about it
I ask her whats wrong
as shes telling me
how her father beats her and her mom
i hear screams from the background
she quickly says i have to go
I sit in my room holding the phone
scared she wont call me back
I didnt sleep that night
In school the next day
i see her with tears running down her face
I tell her its okay to cry
I ask her if she wants to talk about it...
she says "why am i still here?"
"after every attepmt i have tried wishing one day i will be strong enough to go all the way and never wake again"
she said that with a sad but emotionaless look on her face
"whats stopping me"she said
"whats stopping me from going all the way to a point where i cant breath" she said again
i reply by saying "its love stopping you"
and i walk away
