Morning greets me with surprise
A silent knowing of gratitude
That now is all we ever have
Delivered as patient birth

Razors are pain
Rivers are damp
Acids stain you
And drugs cause cramp
Guns aren't lawful
Nooses give
Gas smells awful
You might as well live

Let your word
       Not be wasted
             In the ears of stubborn
      Let your silence
             Silence  the noise
        Of ignorance and negativity.
                      be still
           Is to be at peace with  yourself
                           Know your worth
                                      Trust the process
                                                 Stay in faith
            create the future you ought to have
                                              And where you ought
                                                                ­To be.

They say you went peacefully
And I keep thinking
That you wouldn't have
Ended your life
If you had
Even the smallest bit of peace

I miss you so much sometimes
I feel like I can't breathe

And I don't have all the answers
But I know that people die
Long before they stop being alive
Some of us are just
Going through the motions
Some of us are still breathing
But that's all we do

I miss you so much sometimes
I feel like I don't want to breathe

I was at the edge of the cliff
Ready to jump
I looked at you
Hoping you'd try to stop me
You looked at me and sighed
Because you were tired
Of trying to help me
By the time you took a single step forward
I was already plummeting
Towards the ground.

Everytime I told you I was going to commit suicide I didn't end up doing it.
This time I did and you didn't help
Goodbye.
