Today was suppose to be a happy day in the town of Royal Woods. Today was suppose to be the day where everyone has fun, going to the arcade, having a sleepover and play around in the street. It was supposed to be the day where nothing went all wrong. Today, however, was...different.
There was no one playing around, no one was at home, and the area was silent, making it like a ghost town. Where is everyone?
A van was driving down the streets of Royal Woods. It wasn't heading to a house, it was heading towards a graveyard. Once it reached the graveyard, a family made up of thirteen people came out of it, all had solemn expression planted on their face.
They walked up for about a minute before they found people lined up to an open casket. Most cried upon seeing the deceased body, while others, mainly made up of boys, tried their best to hold back their tears, not wanting to be a big baby. The family was in the line to pay their respect for the dead person. It took a while but now, it was their turn.
Upon seeing the body, the only boy in his family immediately began to cry. The rest of the family members tried to calm him down while having tears spilling from their eyes.
"Oh Clyde, why did you have to kill yourself? You had so much to live for!" The boy sobbed.
"It's okay Lincoln, he's in a better place now!" The female teen reassured.
The family took a minute to calm down Lincoln and pay their respect for Clyde. They then walked to the seats to await the ceremony but realized that the boy wasn't with them. They glanced at the boy, only to see him look at his friend's deceased body.
Should've stayed, were there signs, I ignored?
Can I help you, not to hurt, anymore?
We saw brilliance, when the world, was asleep.
There are things that we can have, but can't keep.
The family realized what he was singing and let him continue.
If they say
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In the sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
Or quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do
As Lincoln finished the song, tears fell from his eyes, along with his family, who heard the beautiful singing of their son/brother.
"I love you, Clyde, you will always be my best friend in my heart, I'll always remember you!"
