LIFE IS WHAT HE GAVE


A man with no more hope
at the end of his rope
who saw no way out of his pain

He went to end his life
to try to end is strife
because he thought he had nothing to gain

But he did

He had a life to live
and he had someone else's to save

He could either live to tell his story
and save necessary lives
or he could take it to his grave

He told his story
And if that's all he did
then the world is thankful today

A historical figure?
No, he's much bigger
because life is what he gave.
