The Skipping Rock

I am a suicide attempt survivor.

I was not content, no need to pay rent, Nobody to live in.

Other girls could laugh, I'd rather bleed in a bath, and find my own path

Til one day I knew, that there was no use, my neck hit the neuse.

Obey to the mirror, on my face horror, things became much clearer.

Skip rocks on the clear, Don't sink when you fear, Other side will wait here. 

It is not your time, go hear the birds chime, and send pain good-bye.
