My Life In Words

Edge Of Goodbye (thoughts of suicide)

There was a time in my life that I didn't think there was any way out but to
end it all, just to look back at that time, and what I've got now, I rejoice in
the decision I made to climb out of that low time in my life and became a strong
person who found the desire to live.

I sat in a dim lit corner of
my room,
My feelings hurt, my life
full of gloom.

There was no song in my
heart,
Instead life had peirced
it with a dart.

A note in one hand saying
my last goodbyes,
A gun in the other hand
and tears in my eyes.

Thoughts running through
my head,
How my family would find
me when I lay there dead.

Mom's tear stained face
haunted me,
As I sat there with the
gun prompt on my knee.

My sister's and brother's
would be lost,
I wondered what all my
actions would cost.

Would I still get to see
the streets of gold?
I remembered all those
stories I was told.

Who would clean up this
mess I would make,
Who would care if my
life I did take.

Thoughts of my family
stirred in my brain,
Finially their words
out weighed the pain.

I stood on the edge
of goodbye,
My life is worth living
I did not want to die.
