A friend was in trouble - this is what we came up with...
Suicide
-------
I wish I had the courage, to take my own life.
I wish I could see it through!
I wish I had the courage, to take hold of that knife!
I so wish it’s what I could do!
But what is the point of it? What if I failed?
Where would I end up? In a hospital bed!
Then what? Drugged up to the hilt, as well as jailed!
They wouldn’t listen, wouldn’t like what I said,
Just pump my body, with hundreds of drugs!
Push it down, out of the way.
Would they believe me? They’d think I was nuts!
They wouldn’t know what to say!
There I would stay, ‘till they said I could go,
What the hell would life be, in that place?
I’d be out of my mind, and sedated, NO!
It wouldn’t be right! THE TRUTH I MUST FACE!
At the moment it’s hell, BUT I HAVE TO HOLD ON!
I must not let go, not that way!
If I was to do it, they’d have won!
Besides, it wouldn’t achieve much anyway!
People would surely take notice, but not how I’d like.
It really isn’t an option for me.
I don’t have the courage, or the right,
To take my own life, to be free.
Why the hell should I do it, let those * win!
Destory my own life, for their joy?
That’s what they’d want, fulfilling their sin,
BUT I’M NOT ONE OF THEIR LITLE TOYS!
I AM A PERSON, IN MY OWN RIGHT,
I WILL NOT BE COAXED DOWN THAT ROAD!
I have to hold on, with strength, I must fight,
No matter, how heavy the load!
I must not give in, to this suicide,
Just look how far, I have come!
WHY THE HELL SHOULD I DO, WHAT RULES ABIDE!
Being so controlled, by that "evil one!".
No I will not be forced, by their empty words!
To take my whole life, at their hands.
I will not be subject, to their evil curse!
But instead, walk into Jesus’s hands.
They have no control, no right to demand,
I DO NOT BELONG TO THEM NOW!
THEY CANNOT DESTROY ME, HURT ME OR HARM!
I’M PROTECTED BY JESUS’S CROWN!
As for you b*, LEAVE ME ALONE!
I refuse to listen, or obey!
No longer in evil, or darkness roam,
But listen to things, Jesus says.
You represent death, but Jesus is life!
And this is the road that I choose.
No longer controlled, by threats, or the knife,
Or stay where I was abused.

Like I said on the original post - joint effort

Suicide is never an option - she was desperate and managed to pull back from the edge. This was written to try and express what she had been through at the time, and how close she went.
I was looking through some "stuff" the other day and came across this and some other writings. I thought it was very powerful and with the current trend in posting poetry and stuff on here at the mo I thought it would be a good place to share it.

Wow. That was heavy. Ive had to go through hardships, but for me suicide has never been an option, i think it is a selfish means to end the problem. I couldn't put that grief onto my family and friends.
