Suicide

I saw them standing there but they didn’t see me
 
It was all a nightmare and what I thought was a dream
 
A saw my father with his head down I thought it could be
 
He was so strong but it did more the just weep
 
 
His whole covered with streaming  liquid pain
 
My mother left the room with no strength to stay
 
My brother started at the wall he didn’t look like he was living
 
Wondering why how when could I have made a difference
 
But he couldn’t do anything to stop it wen the demons were winning
 
Only a matter of time before my best friend is informed
 
Why did I make this decision now everyone looks torn
 
The people would hated me are trying to take it back
 
But what’s the point of an apology if I can’t hear that
 
My teachers quit there jobs too many memories of the devastation
 
But now society gives me so much admiration
 
It’s crazy how they don’t care until it comes to this
 
My boyfriend leans downs and kiss the cuts on my wrist
 
He tells me that he loves me and will be with me soon
 
He leaves my side from the bed almost around noon
 
There’s no one to stop him not anyone else knows
 
What am I suppose to do when I am now only a soul
 
I try to get back in my body to stop him from this mistake
 
But it’s impossible to come back from the dead so I stand here and wait
 
And hour later my parents get just one more call
 
It’s him on the phone he said he’s sorry he let me fall
 
He hangs up I heard his voice crack he’s still crying
 
But soon enough I know I’ll hear that he’s dying
 
Doctors rush by with a bleeding boy on a stretcher
 
It’s him he’s still breathing but I saw him write a letter
 
The impact I had on these people I never even knew it
 
But I now that I do I regret that I caved in and did this
 
I see a light so bright I swear it’s blinding my eyes
 
I guess this is my time to finally say good bye
 
I look down one more times and blow them all a kiss
 
I never knew this is how much I would be missed
 
I want another chance to fight just a little harder
 
I wanted to have a family I wanted to have a daughter
 
I hear a beeping noise okay so now I’m really confused
 
I open up my eyes and I look around the room
 
Everyone’s fast asleep gathered around the bed
 
 
There’s a loud pounding noise inside my aching head
 
I’m alive but how I swear I just saw myself die
 
For the first time I look up and I don’t ask why
 
But I close my eyes and smile and give thanks for my life

Suicide is not the answer.
