Life
Little girl with the blood-shot eyes
And cut up skin,
Who is the one that sparked a cry?
Tell me everything,
I want to know
Who did this to you,
Made you feel so low?
Little boy with a black eye
And a bleeding lip,
Tell me everything, who beat you like this?
Don't push me away, please
I'm your friend
I want to help you,
Please, I am on my knees
You want to die,
Why is that, sweetheart?
Am I just not good enough?
I love you, my friend
Please don't commit
Please don't let it be the end
I hope this poem helps you see the light
'Cause it gets better,
You know I'm right
I'll help you through the pain,
Through thick & thin
Just let in the rain
It soon will pass
Life is a process, hun
You soon will see
That your life is worth living
And I won't have to plea
