it was the warmest day this year
my sister and i were playing outside
when the phone rang
my best friend had hung herself
LAST NIGHT
my head spun
this same girl had called me that night
and i had ignored the call
i was bathing my three year old
how was i to know she was going to die
her mom explained that she was depressed
i knew that already
we went to group therapy together
but yet i could never imagine chelsea killing herself
she had alot going for her
she was pretty and nice
and had many people that loved her
i cant help but think that this is my fault
if i would have answered the phone
she would be sitting here next to me
eating a bowl of ice cream
instead she is dead
and its all my fault
i ignored a friend in need
Chelsea PLEASE forgive me...
