Suicidal thoughts

Mbulelo

I am sitting alone playing my thoughts 
Thinking about my life and all i have been through 
Feeling like this is the end for me ,is it true ?
See let me tell you about myself 
All of my life I have been living with depression
Always felt like I am living under opression 
Popping pills all day was my obsession 
Feeling the burden like am living in regression
So i went to therapy had a session 
It did not help I decided to take my life  
Maybe if i die the pain and suffering might end 
Maybe if i die other people's pain might mend 
But What about my family,my mom and my dad
What would they say if they found out am dead 
I dont think i should kill myself just because I am mad 
Maybe my life will turn around and I will laugh about this some day  
To someone having suicidal thoughts all this will change one day
All this will be over it will be your survival story 
So pick your self up an take on the world and stop being sorry 
And remember after nightfall comes daylight 
At the end of the cave there is light
So this is not the end you have to fight

    The last two lines of your poem convey truth! You have to fight! I have lost two cousins to suicide and it just tears people/families apart. I myself have pondered it. But thank you for sharing your thoughts in this poem today!

    So full of truth, I've been there, therapy didn't help, only God

    As a person with depression this is relatable and true. We must find hope even in the darkest of places.

    A very encouraging poem. I thank you for penning this.
    A lot of mental health is affected not by just our own thoughts but by the society community and the environment all contributes to this.
    See therapy is meant to make you introspect your own condition in realation to your environment, community and society etc and discover the source of problem and then find the best solution you can execute to keep yourself sound.
    Never give up...there is always a way out so take time work on thyself and come back.....the very people who are insulting you will be the one seeking you for solution....that is your capability......so keep listening to your inner voice of encouragement amidst these negatives...you are the problem solver no one has known yet....be encouraged.
