The Silent Voice
I know about David
The love of your life
I have seen all the dreams you held
Heard all the plans you made
He was your Prince Charming
I know you planned on forever
Yes
I know about David
I know how things went south
So fast
One minute
You were his idol
His Goddess
The next
He couldn't try hard enough to get away
I know
It's my fault
No
You didn't plan it
You both should have been more careful
Things just got out of hand
Suddenly everything fell apart
He didn't want to be tied down
You should do
"The right thing"
That's all he says anymore
And I know you listen
Deep down
Maybe you think he's right
I understand how afraid you are
I see it everyday
I feel it too
I just hope that you listen to your heart
Instead of him
Please Mom
Let me live
I promise I'll try and help all I can
When I grow up
If I grow up
Please
Just let me be born
The answer came days later
Sorry
I can't

I would have ended this poem sooner but in the end the choice was not up to me. In this case I came along too late to help. Writing a poem like this is tough, life can be so much tougher. Maybe with these words I can help another.
The love of your life

Heard all the plans you made
He was your Prince Charming
I know you planned on forever

I know how things went south
