Suicide it?s plain to see

Suicide it’s plain to see

Means different things to you and me

For some it’s such a heinous thing

And for that must be classed as a sin

“Don’t be so selfish” “don’t be so stupid “don’t be so pathetic”

Selfish is not living or dying as one wishes,

It’s expecting others to live or die as you wish.

Death is so feared, don’t think of it, or talk or do it

Death is also a merciful release

It really is just another experience

It does not always mean you have no coping skills

Sometimes it means you have too many and too much to cope with.

For some it is a knee jerk reaction, momentary, fleeting

And not really to be acted on.

For some it is just there, always waiting in the wings.

Brooded upon until it is the only point of focus

For others, it’s the comfort that motivates them to keep going

“Ok if it really is too hard then it’s ok to die.

But just get through today/this hour/this minute first

See if you can find some fun to focus intently on,

See if you can learn a new skill to get you through.

Can you take THIS scab off and heal it?

Maybe today will be the day when someone sees

Maybe today will be the day when someone hears

Maybe today someone will be able to break the barrier

Maybe

And maybe they won’t

So tomorrow you can do it

Just get through today
