Boy from Wednesday
So I don’t know why or how
I don’t even know your name
I know nothing about the situation
Only that it happened
People cried
They’re still crying
No one expected it
They didn’t see it coming
I wonder what you went through
What pushed you that far
I’ve been there
I was almost where you are
All I had to do what go through with it
I had the blade held up to my stomach
I was home all alone
But faces appeared in my head
I knew they would be sad
So I didn’t do it
Did faces appear in your head
Did you think others would be sad
Did you know and go through with it anyway
How much pain were you in
If you couldn’t bear to stay
And nobody had any idea
I wish I could’ve been your friend
And I wish we had the chance to talk
I promise I’ll live on
For you, even though we never met
The boy from Wednesday
Rest in peace
