I wanted to fall from a tree with a noose tightly hugging my neck Because there were things haunting me that I couldn't forget But you came out of no where and surrounded me with love You saved me from the pain I was constantly thinking of
Months passed and you continued to kiss the scars that were engraved in my skin Suddenly it didn't seem so impossible to be happy again You promised me you'd never leave and that you'd always keep me safe You told me that you loved me and I told you just the same
One night the phone rang; first your parents then the police And for the first time in years I dropped down to my knees Prayed to a god that I was sure didn't exist I needed you to be safe and I was desperate
With a few hours of sleep I woke up to hear my dad on the phone whispering "oh god" And suddenly I knew what had went on I fell to my knees again but not to pray I screamed in agony "you promised you wouldn't leave me"
So for weeks I didn't eat and struggled to sleep The hospital was my new home and I got pills handed to me I created more scars in patterns that screamed I was in pain Because my lover had killed himself in the rain
Its not your fault my dear but I think it's a shame That I got left worse then I came I miss you my lover, my saviour, my best friend. One day soon I'll join you and we'll be together again.
My boyfriend Martin Saunders committed suicide on January 30th 2013. He was the most perfect human being I had the pleasure to meet and I love him with all my heart. This is a little taste of my story with him.
