In Memory of September's Children
Suicide: a permanent solution
To a seemingly timeless problem
Homosexuality:
They said it was a choice
I know it isn't
Who Would choose to live
The life you did?
You came out.
You are not a coward
Tyler Clementi
A junior high student
Driven to tears
To a bullet
You won't be forgotten
Asher Brown
The same as another
Fear of waking
Ending it all
But creating hope
Seth Walsh
Hope? You had none
As far as you knew
But it gets better
You were loved
Justin Aaberg
September 2011
So many gave up
And it's okay
But we miss you
Raymond Chase
You who say they have a choice
Or make fun of them
Realize this
It's not a joke
