To Those Who Plan to Take Their Lives

 


I know sometimes that death is accidental

I know sometimes that death, like love, is planned

I know the world can be so damn judgmental

But please remember love, and stay your hand

I understand you’re in a place of torment

A place that’s filled with pain, regret, despair

But surely there are those who really love you

No matter if you say that no one cares

Don’t keep the feelings locked inside forever

You’ll only find the comfort if you seek

Talk to your friends, your family, or your lover

You’ll find your problems aren’t all that unique

We all go through the very bleakest moments

You’d be surprised how much we’ll understand

We’ll be there for you, giving strength and caring

To save your life now, just reach out your hand.


If you are feeling hopeless and considering suicide, please reach out to someone. Talk to a friend, a family member, a counselor, or call or text the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988.
