downward spiral Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 This if course was written not long after this attempt. I thank God everday i failed one last time... In my room, walls so bare. thinking of my empty life, for me who cares? Ive tried so hard to make it through. I used to dream of finding someone true. The world would be better off without me. I lock the door so no one can see. In my hand, the bitter pill. Tossing my options but only finding ill will. In the other hand a glass of water. I wonder if I would be like this if I had a father. Tears begin to roll down my face. I cannot believe im still here, living is such a waste. I stare at the pills in my palm yes I am crying but through all of this I am still calm. I begin to wonder if the pills will take to long, maybe a blade to my wrist or is that wrong? I put the pills on the floor, I grab the blade and check the door. I sit on my bed and close my eyes. the pain mounts in my wrist but I hold back my cries. I open my eyes but still see black. what did i do? Will i ever come back? If my life is over, please forgive me. I want to come back, i want to see. I pray this is just a dream, i pray i wake up alive and screaming. Please Lorde forgive me for what I have done. Let me come back to life, i realize life must be won. Thank you Lord, you let me live. from now on in my life, I will not take, but i will give.
