My Friend, I've Been There Too..

Do you know what it is like?

To always think of suicide

To stand beside the tracks and think

It could be over in a blink.

To stand beside the rooftop bar

And think, one jump, it's not that far

To stand beside the kitchen top

One knife, one stab, it all would stop

Do you know what it is like?

To plan your route to suicide?

To overdose, or sufficate

To plan, to rouse, to contemplate

To want an end to all the pain

Oh once a day you yearn in vein

And then at night you plan your wake

Familiar faces all to blame

Oh if your loved ones only new

That u felt this bad what would they do

Beside the thought you yearn for help

For those to know you're not that well

To understand, to reach your soul

To give you what you needed most

A hand, a nod, a gentle soothing

You're okay.. hopes not for losing

To wrap you up and stop the thoughts

To tell you "yes you are enough"

And then you'll turn to a friend

A hand you'll give, you're on the mend

You'll wrap them in warm embrace

And tell them of the life you faced

You contemplated, yearned and tried

But help was there to be applied

And now my friend, I'll help you too

Just tell me, do you plan death too?

Because if so, I'm here to listen

And give you words of gentle wisdom

You're not alone, I've been there too

Just talk to me, I'll help you through

I know life sucks and thoughts are worse

But it's time you tried to put help first

It's out there kid so just be honest

I'm here for you, I make this promise

Don't fear my judgement or remorse

I want to know to help, of course.

Please tell me now, so I know

I'm here to help, not watch you go
