I’ve read about the calmness
That overcomes you
Physically
Mentally
Spiritually
When drowning has finally won
This serene Shakespearean narrative
Told by those few
Brought back
From the brink
I refuse to believe this tale
Convinced I’d be in pure hell
Agony
Anger
Fight
Belief
That I could still win
I refuse to believe that by giving up
The pain goes away
I will fight with every cell I have
Until it all goes black
- my eyes won’t shut forever due to a lack of will and fight

Ive researched people who have survived suicide attempts and how they describe it from their perspective. This one guy who survived after jumping from the san francisco bay bridge said he immediatly regretted it. Still tho i wonder how it feels when you do finally let go..
Tryst,
Spot on my friend!
There is NO
“lack of will and fight”
within you!
I Love this inspirational write!
It radiates with positivity!

Thanks Laura - I still have a lot of fight left within me - because of good friends, family and trust in many people looking down above me. We all need support to find our own fight!
Yes, indeed!
You are young, strong and blessed to trust in the “many people looking down above” you...and your family and friends you trust! My faith is in you and your commitment to rise above it all!
All the best to you, my friend! 🤗
yes you have to fight, don't let the demons win, they will try their hardest.
You must always fight the negatives in life and go forward with the positives.
If it wasn't such a serious theme, I might say 'Oohh, it's a nuisance; it's holding up the traffic on the bridge; can't ya come back tomorrow when there's less traffic?' (Bit of dark humour there!)
