It Only Takes a Second

The world around you, Keeps rushing by, Somebody could help you, But yet they don’t try, You do so much good, Throughout your day, But all people notice Are mistakes that you’ve made, But yet you hold on, To the dream you began, To become a better person, The best that you can, But with all of the pain, The dream slipped away, People had noticed, And started to betray, The truth turns to lies, And the love turns to hate, Nobody cared about you, Until that one December day, If someone would’ve listened, To all that was on your mind, This could’ve been prevented, If someone just had time, It took months for this to happen, All these thoughts were in your head, But no one knew you existed, Until they found you dead, I am not blaming this on anyone else, For I know it was your fault, You were the on e who chose this path, Now all the hope is gone, But if someone were to open their eyes, And take a second out of their day, I’m positive that they’d realize, That not everything in your life was okay, But yet they live their isolated lives, Without a single minute to spare, And due to everyone’s busy routine, My best friend is no longer here.
