Steven was a poor boy In every single way If he told you his life story Then this is what it would say I barely knew my father He raped a little girl I wish that things were different In this crazy messed up world
My mom she tried the hardest She did the best she could Two jobs to make the ends meet Yet my clothes didnt fit so good
As for my little sister Fifteen years didnt seem so long Your death left me much weaker Than the noose you hung upon
I saw youre stiffening body I held your lifeless arms I wished they never made fun of you I couldnt keep you safe from harm
They said the medicine would heal me But I die a bit each day I saw them put you in that casket And yet your face wont go away
And yet your bullies couldnt face you To them you never were But to me youre all thats innocent In a crazy messed up world
This is my teenage story It haunts me everyday And to be loved is all I wanted Somehow it simply slipped away

Sad story, indeed.
Why does the poem change to address the sister instead of the reader part way through? Seems odd to me. Also there's a typo or something at "I saw you're stiffening body". It should be "your", as in the next line.
