Another Song About Suicide...

worse

i thought i was

until i heard you cry

for the first time

you were in a seemingly

bearable parade towards

your own calvary

striking

but you had such grace

despite the weight

of your cross

despite the life

that you lost

now seeing you

on your knees

pleading

begging

giving up

made me ask myself

if my pain was

really mine

or just borrowed

from my self pity



such strength you

had just now

i realized



now that youre cutting

yourself again

now youve just refused

to begin again



im as tired as you



you...

tired of it all

and i...

tired of writing songs

about it

i dont wanna write

a song about you

so please dont go

for in this scrap

book that i made

the pages are filled

and i got no more space

to write

another song about suicide.

You gave me this remember?
I just want to let you know
that I still read it every now and then.
It sometimes makes me think how my life has
changed since you first saw my life from your point of view.,..

I wanna convince myself that Im better now...
but its only gotten worse...but I really appreciate
so much that youve written a poem about my misery.
Kasi I feel like somebody cared. And somehow tried to help me carry my cross... even just through words.
