Second Chance

I was unwanted, hated, disliked, and unloved by people. I just did everything wrong. They expected so much from me. I couldn't give it to them. I thought maybe.... I shouldn't be here. But where would I go? I walked down the park and saw someone suffering like I was. He was sitting all by himself.

I go to him. He looked at me in shock. Someone was actually talking to him. "Are you here to laugh at me? If you are just walk away." He hissed. I told him that I was a lot like him. Soon enough we became friends. Every day we would walk down the street together, both getting hated at. It didn't matter at the time. We were both happy with each other.

Life could not be any better. We were happy with each other. Everything was perfect except something tragic happened. He laid on the floor... Barely breathing.... There I was holding him in my arms as he was saying his last words. I prayed and prayed that he doesn't leave. He was the only person who understood me. My prayers were answered. He started to breathe normally and he was better. I couldn't be any happier.

The days and days went on. Everything was still the same. We were hated but it's okay I have him and he has me. Again it happened... He started coughing blood first. Then he started getting dizzy. And last he collapsed on the floor. I had to hold him in my arms once again. What was I suppose to do? Was I suppose to do something to save him? Was that my only chance?

This time my prayers were not answered. He looked at me and said these last words to me. "Never give someone a second chance." I never knew what he meant. Everyday I visited his grave. People laughed as now Im lonely again. Just to torment me they destroyed the tomb and made me one. I cried. I couldn't help but cry. He was the only one I needed in my life. he doesn't even know that I love him.

Months pass and I slowly stopped eating, I stopped sleeping, I ceased all contact to the outside world. The only thing I have and always will have is the picture of him and me smiling. That day was just amazing. Finally my heart can be with the one I want to be with most. The one who never got that second chance. Like me.
