Tell me why

something i write after a friend died

Tell me why
Is this my fault?
Could i have done something?
the bruises, scars,
crying in a corner
all alone. for
she will never be the same.
Tell me why.
I could have done something.
but i didn't.
shes all alone now more
than ever.
wen she needed me, i
wasn't there.
I didn't hold her when she
cried.
I didn't
catch her when
she fell.
tell me why.
why I
waited a day too
long
to call.
The one
time i don't listen
to my heart.
a cry for help that
no one answers.
I could have answered that call.
Tell me why
Why I didn't answer that call.
