Why..

A few nights ago a girl from my school shot herself.. It has been the 3rd death at my school this year, and the second scuicide. It's made me realize how important each individual person is to someone else, and how fragile life really is. We can't be rude or judgemental of people because you never know what someone is going through. It could be the boy struggling while his parents get a divorce, an girl who isn't eating cause she thinks she is fat, or a girl contemplating scuicide. You have to be careful what you say to and about others because it could be the last thing you say to them. Death of one person can effect the lived of many!!! For example the girl I'm taking about. I dint even know her and yet what has happened to her has effected my life majorly!! It's a shame that someone could hurt that bad and no one even notice. It reminds me of rascal flatts song why:


It must've been in a place so dark you couldn't feel the light
Reachin' for you through that stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered in our little hometown
This can't be the way you meant to draw a crowd

Oh, why? That's what I keep askin'
Was there anything I could have said or done?
Oh, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, God only knows what went wrong
And why you'd leave the stage in the middle of a song

Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a seventeen year old
Roundin' third to score the winning run
You always played with passion no matter what the game
When you took the stage, you shined just like the sun

Oh, why? That's what I keep askin'
And was there anything I could have said or done?
Oh, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, oh, God only knows what went wrong
And why you'd leave the stage in the middle of a song

Now the oak trees are swayin' in the early autumn breeze
The golden sun is shining on my face
The tangled thoughts I hear a mockingbird sing
This old world really ain't that bad a place

Oh, why? There's no comprehending
And who am I to try to judge or explain?
Oh, but I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasn't worth the fight?
They were wrong, they lied, and now you're gone, and we cried

'Cause it's not like you to walk away in the middle of a song
Your beautiful song, your absolutely beautiful song

...well r.i.p jade little. Even though I don't know you personally I know you will be missed!!
