For years I cried and no one knew.

Not my mom or my dad, not even you.

I was a girl with friends and family and success.

But something made my heart break inside my chest. 

Have you ever felt like you were drowning inside?

At night I sat up, I prayed and I cried,

I prayed that I could feel happy once more.

But that prayer felt like a locked and heavy closed door.

So one day I woke up and decided it was time.

To end a life, which happened to be mine. 

Not one not two but 30 pills I took. 

My body then quivered, and aggressively shook. 

I fell in a deep sleep I thought I'd never wake.

But then I woke up to a warm gentle shake.

The doctor told me God gave me a chance. 

To live and sing and happily dance. 

He wanted me to stay on this planet  a little longer.

To learn about myself and continue to get stronger.

After that day something inside me felt right.

A flame, a passion, my light shined so bright.

And now I call it my Life: Take 2.

So I can help people like you.

Who may feel alone and hurt at night.

And feel to weak to put up a fight. 

There is always someone who with you during each day.

As long as you look to the skies and you pray.
