Why?

Suicide.
Why?
Why is it their answer?
What makes it call?
Why do they settle for that, and let their life come and fall?
Life is so precious, to think they have it good.
Something has bothered them.
It's not understood.
What is wrong behind their falling smile?
Is it to late?
Have they felt this way for a while?
Have you bothered asking if something is wrong?
Do you even care if their life is like a broken song?
Asking for help.
Crying in pain.
Never the less others could feel the same.
What if one day your friend said good bye?
But you wern't awear that they wanted to die.
As the next day came.
They were gone.
Wouldn't you wish you knew what went wrong.
You don't know everyones story, but it wouldn't hurt to listen.
Prevent these tragedies, help a life glisten.
Pull them from the dark.
Help them shine.
Let them know, everything will be fine.
Prevent the suicides.
Take a stand.
Let a person know your willing to give them a hand.
No matter the issue.
No matter the pain.
Speak without judgment.
Keep them sane.
Show them you could help.
Others will to.
Spread the word to prevent suicide.
From me to you.

This is really good. I dont think anyone understands why someone wants to kill themself until they've experienced it first hand. Keep writing and read my poetry :)
