    2 years ago, when my dad committed suicide. My dad, he was my hero and the one I could always rely on. I was very depressed and I tried to kill myself several times. When that didn't work, I started to run away from home and leave my family for weeks. I found this poem yesterday somewhere, I wrote this when I ran away for 1 month.


    Dont'worry. I'm doing fine now :)


    -----------------------------------

    Have you ever felt so lost?
    Lost inside your body, your mind
    Knowing your life will soon end
    And you don’t have the answers you need to find

    Feeling as if you’re on that cliff
    And you know you’re going to fall
    Starvation and depression killing you
    So weak that you must crawl

    I try to work out why it is like this
    Why tonight I am choosing suicide
    Sat on a beach- I do not know where
    Running so fast- I need to hide

    Nobody can save me
    My soul, it is just too black
    I promised I would try and I did
    I am sorry but I cannot go back

    My arm- bright red
    Stained skin from my blood
    I am swimming wish such currents
    And my soul is draining like I said it would

    Mum- I love you with all my heart
    But I wanted you there more
    I guess it is just too late now
    Maybe I should have mentioned something before

    To my brother and sister
    I love you so much too
    I wish I’d got to know you better
    And I wish we did not argue

    My friends and my dear boyfriend
    Thank you for sticking by me through thick and thin
    But this battle is just too strong
    And I know that I cannot win

    With my goodbyes gone and sorted
    My wrists will once again be covered by the darkest red
    I will take my tablets one by one
    And when the sea washes in, I will be dead

    Shit, that's one sad poem. :(
    But very good though.

    I'm glad you're still here.
