Summer School

One year I went to a summer school. And there was a girl there With shining eyes and An award winning smile. She was kind to everyone and Excluded no one. She always laughed with others But you could go to her when you needed it. We talked for hours and Quickly became friends. Last year I went back to summer school. The girl was still there. She had sad eyes but Kept the award winning smile. She was kind to everyone yet Excluded herself. She never laughed properly But you could always go to her when you needed it. We talked for mere minutes and I guess I lost a friend. This year when I went to summer school The girl was no longer there. Rumours of suicide surrounded Her name And no one was kind to us all. Everyone excluded their-selves. Silence consumed every thought and moment Because no one was there when we truly needed it. Memories of talking haunted me and I couldn't help but miss my friend.
