Death
Have you ever wondered that maybe you'd be better off dead, that death is the only way you'll find peace? For some people that thought gets so strong that they act on it. We can't comprehend why people kill themselves. Can you imagine feeling what they felt? To feel in your heart that death is the only why to stop hurting, a pain that you can feel so deep inside but can't heal. To feel that you have no one to turn to, no one to talk . People are so worried about themselves that they don't really listen when others are talking. You don't see hurt in their eyes. You don't hear the pain in their voice. You're to worried about your own struggles your own problems. You don't notice that they're hurting to a point were they will do anything to make it stop. Then you call them cowards, say they take the easy way out. How is that the easy way when everything in us tells us to survive. You have to wonder how they felt to be able to do what they did. To think you have no other choice, to feel that the only way to stop the pain is to die. To feel so a lone that you believe that no one cares enough to hear your cries for help. Can you really judge someone for doing what they felt was the only way they could be happy, to be at peace, the only way that they could stop the pain. Take the time to listen and take the time to show you care. Be aware that your problem aren't the only ones out there.
