I Killed Myself

He jumped off the building
They said I asked my friend
Who that guy was she said
“He goes the same school 
As you do” “lives in the 
Same building” “he kinda 
Looks like you do” wears 
That favourite jacket you love
To wear” She said “he plays
Poet like You” he jumped
Off the building they said
And right before he hit the 
Ground I woke up from that 
Dream I was having where I
Killed myself I mean
I stopped writing…
