My life in a poem.

joymnelson14

Wishing I was dead right now,

And people ask me why    

It seems the world's against me

But I still refuse to cry

 

I know I have to be strong

I said that I would be

But jut the way I feel right now

I wish my soul was free

 

 

I'm absolutely terrified 

It's hard to say, but it's true

I lost my very best friend today

And I don't know what to do

 

I wish all my suffers would stop 

Maybe with me not coming to an end

I wish I wasn't here today

I wish I still had my friend

 

 

She stayed with me when I was hurt

When I was depressed or down 

She always made me happy

She turned my bad days around

 

Maybe death isn't the answer

I need a better way to cope

Pain isn't the solution to anything

And what I need is hope

 

 

I feel really bad today

Like my grave is already dug

The only thing I want right now

Is for someone to give me a hug

 

I admit that I was stupid

And after she held me tight

I promised to never try to do that again

But I can't break a promise if I'm dead, right?

    Great poem, I'm sorry you feel so crappy. I think we've all felt that bad at some point in our lives and you just have to hold on tight and keep on going. I hope you feel better soon! Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks for your support. I spent most of lunch crying in the bathroom.

      WELCOME JOY (LOVELY NAME) Thanks (despite the inner pain) for sharing your first poem ~ it was very very brave. I am sure you found it cathartic to share. When we are growing up life is never ever easy and losing Friends & Family just make life more miserable. MPS is a very empathetic site and most of us have been where you are today ~ wishing we were dead ~ but somehow surviving ~ because there was generally someone whose shoulder we could cry one ~ someone to give us a HUG. Thanks for sharing ! Thinking of you ~ praying for you and A BIG HUG ~ Yours BRIAN (UK)

      Nice poem, and even though it is easy to tell yourself to be strong, I understand that it isn't always the case.

      Good emotive write. Your friend is still with you and always will be and will want to see you come out of the sadness, go forward with hope and all will be fine.
