Live Another Day

Time is ticking away. Another night,another day. Where am I going? I do things without knowing. Always searching for the why. I wish I could die. What the hell am I doing here? Nothing is clear. The walls are closing in. I constantly think of what might have been. My head is filled with abuse. What the hell is the use? Family and friends don't care. If only I could share. What I feel. Maybe I would heal. Hell! I'll show them all. I'm going to take the fall. and when I'm gone they will see. They should have paid more attention to me. WAIT! First. Let me think. While I'm lingering on the brink. Time is slowly ticking away. What can I do? What can I say? I'm young. The hurt will pass? Nothing ever lasts? STOP! LISTEN! To the sounds from within. The sounds of your kin. "Please. Don't. We love you." "Let's start anew." "Please. Don't be sad." "Nothing is that bad." "Talk to us. Together, we'll find a way." "A way through each and every day." "We are your mothers,fathers,sisters,and brothers." "Don't you know you are loved by so many others?" "If you die. We die to." "How can Life go on without you?" Time is slowly ticking away. "PLEASE, STAY WITH US ANOTHER DAY."I wrote this piece because it is so close to me. Some close friends of mine have killed themselves thinking it would solve everything. It doesn't. It only makes more victims, more hurt. Written October 25th, 2001 © on Oct 25 2001 01:34 AM PST   0 • 1
