Why?

You never had much for a dad, I understood. He’d left you and your mom for a girl, which he always had to have I thought we had something serious, I thought we could last With you I felt that I had no ties in my past, which was until you left me the weekend before last I never will understand why you left me for that type of a guy? I guess it’s because you found out, you just liked getting high Whenever you shot him up, you felt that you could fly Which in other cases you thought you could touch the sky, And I’m guessing that’s why you probably died! Jumping from a nine story building isn’t cool, especially when it’s in front of an elementary school Its laws of physics baby, why couldn’t you see? Jumping from that window wasn’t going to help you fly to the Mediterranean Sea! You should have known that, but I don’t think you cared. You where so high you probably forgot to be scared while free falling a hundred and eight feet out of mid- air Why you wanted little kids to watch your body splat, bets the hell out of me, who in their right mind would do that? From what I heard it only took an hour to clean up the mess, but during that time a lot of kids past out at recess! Poor little jimmy, he defiantly got the worst, he was swinging on a swing when he saw you fall He fell off and broke his jaw! You were just like your dad you wanted something knew You chose him over me and you thought you could fly? You flew just like a rock falling from the sky! My lesson learned! Don’t pick drugs over anyone, you’ll fall out of the sky and that’s never fun!
