Why?
By Nentikobe
Dedicated to Mike Neddo.
Hello, you may not know me
You may have never seen me before
But I know you
I've seen you
To me you were nothing but a face with a name
I didn't know you well
But I still cry
You were so well loved
By everyone
It just makes no sense
You weren't a part of my life
But you were always around
I've seen you
I've heard you
I've heard people talk about you
All nice things
Everyone loved you
And it saddens me that I won't get the chance
To love you too
You always seemed so happy
I didn't know you personally
But I found myself looking you up
In my yearbook
As I stare at your picture
Trying to accept what has happened
I start to cry
I don't know why
I just do
I think of my friends who knew you
I think of others too
I think of what your family
Will do without you
I cry
I don't get to bed 'till late
You were so young
You were so loved
Everyone will miss you
I will too
I passed you in the hallway
That final day of your life
And it never occurred to me
That I would never pass you in the hallway again
So as I say goodbye
I try not to cry
But all I want to know is, "Why?"
