Hold on
I thought people who took their lives
Who Strangled and stabbed themselves with knives
Were Unnecessary selfish and evil
Misguided and excessively ungrateful
But though naive before
Now I see it’s more than lore
I could see why it would happen
Though for inexplicable reasons
I questioned why anyone would want death like that
To take their lives by their very own hand
And I tried but couldn’t get it
I still don’t
But somehow I do
I know someone who went down that road
In an uncanny fashion as I was told
Breaking hearts with the atrocious act
Just like every other death but even more sad
It hurts, it scourges
It’s terrible agony
To lose some one
So devastatingly
And yet the thought that comes along
Is “If only he had opened up”
Sadly they’re gone horribly
And it’s painful and maddening reality
So why you’re still here
While they’re dead
Go on living
Even if it’s hurts
You don’t have to carry it alone
They say the world doesn’t care
But somewhere, someone does
There’s always a listening ear
Reach out
Even when the darkness feel loud
And you feel like you’re drowning
On the days you feel like a burden
Please choose to stay
Live another day
