Here I am still holding on,
Too afraid to say my goodbyes,
Here I am still trying,
To find the light in the darkness,
Trying to pull myself together,
To make the love ones around me to feel better,
The struggle to face the end is still there,
In a corner of my soul...
It is still screaming to be let out,
But there is the hope holding onto me,
Oh don't fade out..
Because without you,
There won't be a me...
Please don't fade out,
Hold me a little longer...
Because even when I am screaming for the end,
A part of me is afraid of it..
Dear hope please don't fade out,
Without you, there won't be a me...
I wrote this when I was contemplating suicide. No one knew that I was suicidal.After I put my pen down, this poem convinced me to hold back.
It tells me there is hope and life will get better eventually and it did.
If this poem can help even one person, it will be my salvation.
