Why

  Why 

 

If one day you wake up and I’m not there don’t cry don’t grieve don’t write paragraphs about how much you loved me because, when I was alone in my darkest hours, you weren’t the one that would stay up at night to make sure I was alright, don’t say I was a wonderful boy and wonder how people could be so cruel, because in some ways you were the reason I might have taken my own life that night.
