Nothing Left To Give

Sometimes when the days get long and boring,

the tiredness enters my restless mind.

My body becomes limp and fatigued,

and thoughts of suicide I will soon find.

 

As I close my eyes and think about my life,

I can only think about moving forward instead.

Moving from this life and into the next,

Passing on from the living and into the dead.

 

Its not a painful feeling that I have,

filled with anger, hate, or spite.

But a feeling of peace and serenity,

something that feels right.

 

Nobody I've told about this understands,

instead they think I should want to live.

But how can someone want to live,

when they have nothing left to give?
