"Missed"

You are sweet
You are kind
You care
You should have had more time
Some grew tired
and in their minds
your cries for help
were cries to bind
so they told you lies
so you would leave
and you broke off
from the friends you need
but some did stay
and reach for you
their kind friend
that they knew
but weeks did pass
and darkness grew
until at last
you fell through
now you are gone
and you are missed
by a friend who cares
I hope in death
you at least found bliss
