too far

the sky is black, the moon can see
a boy is hanging from a tree
his life wasn't great, a total wreck
a rope is tight around his neck
his head is twisted to one side
his eyes are scared and opened wide
he tried to stop but the rope wasn't long
not enough time, he wasn't strong
on his hands it left a scar
he couldn't reach, the ground was too far
