Close To The Edge

I am close to the edge,
I am about to jump over this hedge,
But I hesitate & I begin to think,
I try to ignore the devil as he tips me the wink.
Do I really want to die? That is my thought,
Into an eternity of hell do I want to be bought?
I look out across I see people bustling around,
Looking so small like little ants on the ground.
If I fell would people come to my aid?
In honesty to kill myself I am afraid,
I am just looking for the coward’s way,
A part in my own death I don’t want to play.
I want to die when I am grey & old,
In a warm bed not out here in the cold,
Nor do I want to die when I am alone,
I want to leave this life in the comfort of home.
I sob to myself & wipe the tear from my eye,
Today really wasn’t my day to die,
Thankfully my sanity kicked in,
I was about to make the devil my next of kin.

| Great write, I hope a lot of people read this and decide the same. Taking your own life is so selfish and hurts everyone around you. You are very special nessa. Keep writing......Mike |

| Living is our pride and proud ,cancel vexation in the heart, watch one s canthus in mirror , erode grey and bore of years, believe oneself make the whole world to be beautiful in our smile and laughter |

What a beautiful poem on self tribulation. What would we do if you were gone ?
The world would be left without your song.
