The way I watch:
The way I watch your grades,
Go up and down,
The way I watch as you
Try your hardest to stay profound,
The way I watch myself,
Not able to help as you
Crumble down.
The way I watch
You build your future,
Then tear it apart,
You are So smart,
Yet you couldn’t
Help but give up,
Please just restart
I know that it’s hard,
So just let me help,
Before you decide to
Depart on your beautiful
Art and your health
The way I watch,
And try, to get in
The way you,
Close the curtains within;
I tried to peek
But you were no
Longer there.
You are no longer
Here or anywhere
That I can see,
Maybe I should
Have just let
You be.
