the rope that looped the neck

the neck of my friends brothers friend

the rope that silenced life 

the rope that silenced Jake

The desk that is now empty

the signs, well there were none

Although i never knew you

Your eyes still linger deep into mine

Although we will never meet, although we never will

we once walked on this earth

together 

as one

Now Jake, you are gone forever 

Why have you done the things you did?

To your family 

To friends

To me

Why Jake?

Today was possibly one of the saddest days of my life. Im crying right now as i write the poem. As much as i thought things like this could never happen...they do. Suicide happens. It does. A boy named Jake is gone forever, off this world. Rest in peace Jake. Even the ones that didnt know you, loved you.
