What if it was today?

Today someone took their own life.

Would it make a difference,

If it was someone you knew?

Someone you didn't?

Would it make a difference,

Someone close to you?

Someone far?

Would it make a difference,

Someone you didn't expect?

Someone you did?

Would it make a difference,

Why?

You ask?

It matters if it makes a difference.

How?

You ask?

Because,

That difference could cause you to realize the difference,

One that helps.

One that doesn't.

And still, they don't know a thing about that difference.
