POEM - Someone Helped

[buffysmglover]

A dirty brick
Lying on the ground
A man is dead
His future found
She didn't kill him
But she helped

A dark red rose
Planted in the ground
A girl is dead
To Hell she's bound
He didn't kill her
But he helped

Two lone souls meet
Standing in bright light
It took so long
But they're here tonight
They didn't know it
But God helped

I like it. Moving.

Thanks.

When I wrote it I had no idea what it meant. But I've summed it up since then.

Their teenagers. Her constant bullying on him eventually led him to kill himself. He didn't feel like he was good enough for life, anyone, especially her, and he loved her for unexplainable reasons, even to him. But she was picking on him because she liked him. When he killed himself, the guilt and pain she felt led her to kill herself.
