&quot;beauty is not blond, <br /> love is not first sight, <br /> family is not for gain, <br /> respect is not a right, <br /> knowledge is not key, <br /> magic is not pretend, <br /> peace is not paper, <br /> goodbye is not the end&quot;

Why couldn't you see?
Couldnt you hear my please?
Begging you to see,
But the rainbows and sunshines
you chose not to believe.
The birds singing and the wind howling was not enough,
To keep you here with me.
The scars you left
Run too deep.
The memories you left,
Have become too much to keep.
I should have seen your soul,
Inside all the pain you had to live with.
My friend,
Why couldnt you see?
How much you meant to me.
Without a goodbye,
you left turning your back
at the world, screaming "I Quit."

Well, I had been suicidal a lot in the past. I just wanted to inspire others who are in that place to see their actions through someone else's eyes.
