A Cry For Help

Topic:
Suicide
|
I called out to you
and you turned your face away
I told you I was hurting
and you said it would be okay
you said that you would be there for me
and to call if I needed you
then you went away
and I saw that you weren't being true
you weren't there for me
you didn't really care
you just wanted to look good
this was more than I could bear
I made one more attempt
to make it clear as day
that if you didn't help me
I would simply float away
you laughed in my face
and said that i'd be fine
you treated me like a child
you went over that line
and now you wonder why
i didn't talk to you before
taking that knife
out of the kitchen drawer
and now you wonder why
i didn't pick up the phone
cuz after all is said and done
you wouldn't leave me all alone
i ran into the night
running from the pain
i ran away from anger
just to try to keep sane
finally i rested
and took the knife in hand
i thought of you and cried
you'll never understand
i held so much faith in you
i trusted you so much
and yet somehow i felt it
the warmness of your touch
and simply from the fact
that i barely felt you there
i dropped that awful blade
and left it lying there
I still won't talk to you
because I realized then
that i'm the only one I can trust
I am my only friend
I have to live on for me,
and not for them or you
I have to see the strength inside
and believe that it's the truth
because even though you smile
and say you're there for me
when it comes to the end
will you really be?

I love this and unfortunately I relate. I will never understand how people can turn away from you when you tell them how you feel and yet are surprised when you do something drastic, as if they thought that by ignoring your pain it would go away. God, I hate people. Love the poem though.

| This poem touched me as i have been there. When it comes down to the moment of truth, no one will be there but you. It was a good write. |

Wow this is a powerfull write and really needed to said.
I find it hard to comprehend the fact that parents, (some) have children then abandon them when they need u most.
It's really sad.
My heart goes out to u'll and I know I can't take your pain away but I can hold u close to my heart.
Hang tuff angel
huggs, luv,
emy |
