A Poem from a Person, who ATTEMPTED SU***DE SEVERAL TIMES
A Survivor of Multiple Attempts of Su***de
To close my book of LIFE
YET
Here infront of all I stand
ALIVE Breathing in the beauty of life.
If you think it is easy
Try cutting your wrists
Or get so intoxicated and jump off the cliff
Maybe swallowing a handful of broken glass might help
Or would you like to gulp a bottle of sleeping pills?
If those don't work out fine
Let's try something else
Like stuffing down some powder
Toxic as hell
Supposed to cleanse out the waste
Yet morning after when you wake
All that you feel is
The failure of the plan
So off we now go to research
Wearing a scientist hat
For it is now a mission
No chance we should fail again
Buy a lot of pills and booze
And smash window panes with your hands
Have a party of your lifetime
As that lifetime is going to end
And then you wake up again in the morning
Sober as you have never been
Wondering what the f**k is wrong
Why God is picking a fight with me?
When I want to live he creates a life of hell
And if I try to end my life, he sends me back home again.
Grateful to be a SURVIVOR for I know pain
Being PU 💕
