smile if you can forget the killing end
the decisive body step over the edge

smile if you have no doubts she could be still alive
if you had been there

smile if you just can forgive her selfish way
excluding you from what a friend is for

smile if you do not feel betrayed
if you do not feel a pain

smile
if you do remember the two of you together
do you dream
that she´s still around
talking, joking, struggling?
what do you see
when you close your eyes and think of her?

a human being growing up
a friend for life, giving up
a childhood memory?
or a tragedy

smile if you can accept the absurdity
two young lives wasted for no change
