She awoke from her dream Thoughts going awry. Alive…? …What…am…I? Have I ever known?
I’m not sure where I am Lights are buzzing overhead I blink Blink again
A door opens I try to take a look around I am weak My head barely lifts
A hand grabs mine “Do you know who I am?” I look over through bleary eyes Uhhhh no, I don’t even know where I am. This must be Hell, for it’s the only place I could ever truly be alive.
“Uhhhh….You’re where your meant to be, what do you mean?”
Why ….. WHY AM I HERE? Anger ensues I scream I beg I plead JUST SEND ME BACK! “WE SAVED YOUR LIFE!”, the voice speaks again, more intensely this time.
“And who are you to decide who lives and who dies?! “ No response
FUUUCCCCK
Hands are on me “We need you to calm down, you’re not making any sense.”
I’M NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE!
“Yes you are, life is precious”
I laugh….and laugh again.
“You’ve just got to learn to live, you’ll understand one day.”
You humans never understand My anger grows
“You have a reason to live!”, the voices plead with me.
I feebly lift my head, I recognize no one in the room. “*******” I yell, “you don’t even know me!”
I try to sit up, I am incapable. “Ma’am, ma’am, please take it easy, we just brought you back to life, you we lost you three times.
Tears begin streaming I don’t belong here I don’t belong here I don’t belong here I don’t belong here…..
I wrote this about what I felt and thought when I woke up in ICU from my suicide attempt
