The scratchy noose around your neck,

A short, endless jump.

All that you have ever been,

Ending with one step.

A future, distant, bright, untouched,

Never to be lived.

Broken family, sobbing friends,

Your place never filled.

A selfish, foolish, desperate move

To end all hopes and dreams.

You will be more than you are now,

If you just stop to think.

Your problems can be solved in time,

You are so important.

There will always be someone who

Holds you close to their heart.
