Ode To a Hopeless Love
Here is a tragedy written in blood,
A story of a boy and his lifeless body in the mud.
They found his body in an open field,
The policeman said that he’d been killed,
His chest was black and his heart was gone,
Detectives said he wasn’t dead long,
He was laying there with open eyes,
How could no one hear his cries,
Just before they carried him away,
A note was found, It was written today,
It read, “she broke my heart so I ripped it out,”
No one there could figure it out,
He was killed by no other than the love in his heart,
The love that she gave him, that tore apart,
He said he would love her until he died,
he would kill himself before she was the reason he cried,
She saw his body laying on the ground,
Then let out a deathly sound,
She screamed out his name then dropped to her knees,
She tried her best to put her mind at ease,
She still loved him after all,
But its too late, she let him fall,
She tied the knot and kicked the chair,
The next morning she was hanging there,
She was hanging in her bedroom his picture on the floor,
She left a note saying ” I cant cry for him anymore,”
