I give up, I'm burned out from it all,
don't know if I can take the next duty call.
I'm tired from not getting enough sleep
all I want to do is lay down and weep.
My thoughts tell me to just lay down and die
get it over with but my children might cry.
I'm at wits end with hopes for the better,
I don't really want to write a suicidal letter.
Helpless or hopeless, I just don't care,
should I get help, make others aware?
my life as a whole may not be a big deal
I'll try to carry on no matter how bad I feel.
