Friends do ask, but I don't tell
Even though it feels like hell
Never wanting to say what's true
Tears stream in silence because of you
Accidental is the word they used
No next times left to be abused
Your lifeless body felt so cold
Leaving a mental scar I'll forever hold
Overwhelmed with grief I can't explain
Venomous poison that's said to help with pain
Eulogy was something I didn't want to write
Rage begging me to fight
Doctor, please tell me why you gave him more
Oblivious to the signs I know you ignored
Silence is something I'll always regret
Endless heartache pleading for me to forget
