I Didn’t Commit Suicide

        I was here on HP and I read some
Trending words under a title of Suicide
It made me stop and Thank God the tears
Of my darkness long ago have dried

For when I was a young man
No one ever knew the tears I cried
And no one ever knew just how
Close I was to suicide

Yes there was actually three times
That literally I tried
Now it makes me sad to think
Just what if I had died

I would’ve never had a wife or daughter
To receive the love I could provide
I would have never enjoyed so much life
If death was the answer I was to decide

I’m not rolling in money but my
Heart and soul are filled with pride
I have riches that money can’t buy
I couldn’t be happier, I didn’t commit suicide
