Robert- 6/30/2011

A Poem by NemoNelson

On a Saturday night
With a big kitchen knife
A young boy of fifteen
Takes his own life.

The news shocked us all
His teachers and friends
It's hard to process
When someone's life ends

We went to his door,
With lit candles and sang
To show how we cared
And to help with the pain

Sometimes it's hard
To see how our words
Affect people we love
To see how they hurt

Robert, just know
How much we loved you
And although you are gone
You're here with us too.

There really isn't much to say about me. I never really know what to put in these things. I'm 16. I write a lot, but most of it never makes cut. I'm very picky about my own writing, but I'll never sto.. more..
