A young boy, smiling they say
The Sky is blue, but turns grey.
His Life will change, or will it?
Why don't you tell it?

He tries his hardest to resist
His head is like an endless list
Remember hes young, he doesn't know any better
Or does he?
Come on I said tell him, why don't you send him the letter?

If he keeps running, he will find darkness
But then comes the opposite, then he will see the Light
Yeah he knows whats right,
But its hard,
Because hes on the Verge of Suicide Tonight.

I don't even know what that is, my first attempt at Poetry



EnvyMyApex was right, in that it was more of prose than poetry; you simply said 'stuff'. Though you did use some techniques ― you switched from third-person (first verse) to first-person (third verse).
The theme is strong. Suicide. There's a lot of ways to go with that. You ended it somewhat bleakly; it wasn't exactly as subtle or underplayed as I might have liked it, but it was well-put all the same. Good job, though. Writing poetry is a real bitch, so you did pretty well. :p
