My Suicide Poem by Rachie West

I've always hoped
My life wouldn't end that way
I pitted those girls
Who sat on the floor
With a blade to their wrist
And eyes so sore from cryin'

I knew someday I'd have to face it
All the pain and all the woe
But all of the steps that I've taken
Haven't carried me too far,
I go so slow

So why is it I shed a tear
And it hits the floor like glass
And all that you could say
Was I shouldn't dwell,
It was in the past
Let's not repeat it

Lookin' back on your words
I know why they felt so wrong
They spoke to me no wisdom so,
Now their in this song
To show you

That maybe next time
When the tears flow from the past
You can hold me in your arms
And whisper it won't last
But from this broken window I see my view on life
I know that it could go now
I could end it tonight
Let face it

I wonder what would happen
If this was my farewell
I hope that my song sadness
Can show and tell you
Why I was so unhappy
And the reasons why I fell

The knife is on the counter
And I'll be the floor
When my heart stops beating
I'll sing this song no more
And then maybe when your older
You'll know my blood is on your hands
And thanks for understanding
It's good to know someone cared
Someone cared

Promise me that once a year
You'll place a flower on my rock
And pray for the girl who's heart
Heart you put on lock

Love my suicide or
Or never bid farewell
Because God knows your forgiven
Don't say you've got no more to tell
