Jacob

There is no sadness.
Only numbness.
You reach for the stars like there's no tomorrow.
But there are no stars.
There is no light.
No more time to put up a fight.
No more time to say 'hello.'
No more time to say you're sorry.
Because of could've's, would've's, should've's
Because no solution will be found.
Because no amount of tears can wake the dead.
Only sorry's whispered in your head.
Only the tears and friends by your side will keep you company in this hard time.
No one else there, no one at all.
No one there to pick you up when you fall.\


Everyone is hurt.
Everyone is affected.
Even me who never knew you or glanced at you in the halls.
And everyone is grieving, everyone hurts.
Everyone wishes they did something different.
But now it's too late and you're already gone.
