before you **** yourself,
just remember
that there are
places you have not been
and things you have not seen.
and poems to awe
art to draw
fields to walk through,
people to talk to,
music to take in,
games to win,
and books to be read.
so why,
oh why
do you wish
to be dead?
it's your life
but the people
around you
get hurt too.
