He's Gone

He’s gone 
I can’t believe he’s gone
Didn’t even let me
Say goodbye
So nonchalant 
Just by the way
We sent him away
Couldn’t let him stay.
Attitude problem?
So what.
Drugs?
So what.
He’s rad and you couldn’t even care.
This is all your fault
He’s not the screw up
You are
Both of you
Worst
Parents
Ever.

And less than a week after his birthday
I mean come on.
