What In the World?

What in the world were you thinking? You left my heart sinking If you had come to me I would have heard your plea And it would have been easier on me Your very best friend But in the end, you decided to take your life You just picked up that knife And slit your wrists Your list of problems went through the roof You thought nobody cared about you But nothing could be further from the truth You sat in your room all alone While outside the people you hid From were growing ever more fond of you They were scared, not knowing what to do You could have gone to them, they cared too But instead you took the easy way out You didn't scream or shout You left the world more quietly than you entered it Not careing about the people you left behind Or the effect it had on them For you to end your short life.
