Jay My Friend

For what has dawned my eyes I will not disguise This is what I have seen, A friend die and in this poem I will not be shy He yelled I don't want to live And s**t I don't give He yelled I want to die and that's not a lie I said your drunk Thinking he was just in a funk He stormed off to his room with an angry look of gloom And what happened next, Click Click So I took off to stop this trick Got to his room, swung the door open Only to have my face frozen Shotgun in his mouth, finger on the trigger To yell NO was all I could figure With every emotion across his face And a life in which he was about to erase Then with a pull of the trigger he was gone now a future without a friend from hereon Left with nothing but nightmares in my head And visions that are blood-red Now with tears that continue to shed And thought that I dread The thoughts of the path he chose to travel Has my mind quite unraveled One that I have walked , but not to the end One that has you only descend And with that, Jay my friend It is brotherly love to the end
