don't do it.

that is exactly what I'd like to say to you
don't do it.

it should be simple shouldn't it?
three easy words
short and sweet
straight to the point
exactly what I want to say.

but being the person that I am
I couldn't leave it to just that
I'd have to say more
and then it would go wrong.

don't do it.
why would you do it?
do you not value your life?

tricky business
I love you.
but it makes me angry
the fact that you would ever be willing to
just throw it all away like that.

so many people have
so much less
than you.

don't you dare fucking do it!

and that would not be helpful.

    "Baby, don't you do it, don't do it
    Don't ya break my heart
    No please don't do it, Don't ya break my heart
    My biggest mistake was loving you too much
    and letting you know
    Now you got me where ya want me, and you won't let me go"

    This one made me smile because I think everyone needs a friend who is in a more positive frame of mind to remind them not to go off the deep end sometimes.

    I liked that you were being so matter of fact with words like "don't you dare do it...and, that would not be helpful." (!) Which is an understated way of saying "Don't harm yourself my friend!!"

    It just seemed sweet to me. :)
