Writing is a passion from within, you can write about anything that your heart desires and nobody can tell you that it is wrong.

Loving somebody is like giving them a gun and hoping they don't pull the trigger


"I am vain, just like when a rose thorn draws blood from a human,worthless"

She is sick of everything,-
mostly life.
Endless cuts up to her elbows,depression-
its dark and lonely.

Life seemed great before;happy-
now took a wrong turn of life-
spiraling down.

Nobody notices she is depressed-
everything feeling fake each day.
Her life surrounded with people-
but who actually cares.

Who'd thought the cheerleading captain-
would want to take her own life.
She gets ready for her final act,
writing notes to loved ones-
her last good-byes.

Her cell phone rings right before,
she can put that belt around her neck.
Three simple words,change everything-
I Love You.


The author's comments:
What inspired me to write this poem is that each day a lot of teens do attempt suicide,and that most of them do have good IQ's and are people you wouldn't think would commit suicide.

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."
-Elizabeth Kubler Ross

That makes this piece even better, that you can create something like this without personal experience.

This is amazing. It is sadly true, that so many teens think they are worthless. If each person got a text like that, so many souls would be saved.
