Goodbye

Goodbye

A Poem by Lost n' Found
"

A sad story that some people might relate to.

"
There he went 
That Tuesday evening,
Walking all alone.
My friend was he,
One much troubled
It's hard to think he's gone

The past few years
Were difficult,
But then I came along.
I was a friend
Always by him,
When he needed a hand.

His dad and mom 
Had been divorced,
Just a few years back.
His mother drank 
Away her life
His father never cared.

He said to me
He hated his
Dad with all his heart.
But, then at home
When no one knew,
He'd cry there in his room.

At school he did
What he could 
To keep up with his peers.
He thought he found 
Some new friends now,
Until they let him down

It was a party
All night long,
They had gotten drunk.
A nasty prank
A picture lost,
In cyberspace for life.

Next day at school,
All he heard was
Laughter and regret
But now too late,
The breaking point.
He met me once again.

He said "thank you
For being there,
When no one ever cared.
You were like an angel,
A comforter
I'd even say a brother.

He said, "I 
Love you, man"
And gave me one last hug
Before he went 
Away that day
And made his final jump.

Just before
The end of him
Flashes of memories gone
He sent a text 
"Goodbye my friend"
Don't forget me when I'm gone.

He was found
The next day at
The bottom of a bridge.
It was the saddest
Thing I've ever known
I hope we all may learn.

This is just something I wrote... it's partially inspired from an event that happened a while ago.

So sad, and you've captured it really well, considering its not something from your direct experience. I like the way you just refer to it as 'going away'.

Crying on the inside for you. I get it I have a few friends like him except there like my sisters. It would hurt me to lose them so sorry.
