fuck you all
it's time to go
i hope never to return
the compromises that you made
made my insides burn
the lies that form upon your lips
the silence that you kept
the way you turned your back on me
were never things i could accept
i'd sit alone inside my room
and think of ways to leave
as all the dreams i thought i had
were crushed beneath your feet
your face became my nightmare
your presence froze my soul
but just one thing you couldn't take
it remained under my control
i chose the time
i chose the place
i even chose the how
so fuck you all
you had your chance
my leaving time is now.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    yes...if it feels as real as it sounds, you might be in need of some friendly support...if you are willing to, we are all here to help each others, ok?

    be well,
  • Ooooooo....I know a few people I could send this too!! :D
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.

    It's been a good 24 years since I've been suicidal (yeah!). Are suicidal people that coherent? In fact, aren't suicidal people "content" right before they go - they have a plan, and are ready.

    I think the poem is clear, without being too dramatic. Well done.

    some old "friends" who rubbed me the wrong way...I will probably never see again...live and learn!!
    When reading this I didn't think of it as suicide...it was more as like getting F*cked by someone you trusted...
