They take my heart and make it cold. They take my mind and let it mold.
They twist, scar, and bleed my soul.
And replace it with a dark-black hole.
They make me lose my self-control.
They leave me broken, hurt, and alone.
They fill me with guilt, sins unatoned.
They slash, cut, and break my bones.
They place my corpse upon their throne.
And drag me away to my unknown.
They poke and prod my doubt has grown.
What I did is done; I reaped and sewn.
They beg me to take it; my life’s a loan?
Not once, not twice, but more like thrice.
I crossed the veil of death and life.
My demons greet me with a smile so wide.

If you or someone you know is dealing with the thought of suicide, then don’t hesitate to get help. I’ve dealt with suicide in my past, three times to be exact. I’ve lost people very close to me where it’s left a void in my life that’s so debilitating at times I have to ask myself why them and not me? You are not weak for asking for help because life is precious.
Below I’ve listed links for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline along with a link for The Out of Darkness Walk for Suicide Awareness.
