This is not the answer!


“Please, I can help you!”

Words that every person wants to hear.

Words that mean I love you and I care.

Words that want you to be alive.

Suicide is a very touchy subject for most people

But If you don't talk about it then your feelings get bottled up.

With the recent loss of Robin Williams, lots of people are thinking about their lives.

Who would miss them if they died?

Would life be better is I died?

How should I take my own life?

All these questions go through everyone’s mind.

But would life really be better?

Many think that they have to take their lives to make others lives better.

But everyone deserves to live.

Everyone deserves to have a beating heart.

Death shouldn't happen if you are the one causing it.

Suicide is not the answer to every hard time in life.

Killing yourself shouldn't even come across as a thought.

But it does.

Remember that you are a beautiful person and that no one can tell you otherwise.

You deserve to be happy, and you are in charge.

Just keep on living.

I can help you.

Poetry, no matter how horrible is, is my way of releasing my emotions and becoming whole again
