You've had a hard life
Full of hatred and denial
Betrail and heartbreak
Like your heart is on trial
You want it to end
This treacherous life
To run away free
To give up the fight
But I can tell you now
That nothing can compare
To what you've gone through
Through all that despair
It might seem like
The tunnel of light
Would be much better
If it stopped burning bright
I can tell you
"Don't end your life"
But it would do anything
Except fuel the fight
Your heart doesn't want it
I can see it in your eyes
So I wrote a poem for you
Without wearing a disguise
I might not be the wisest
Or all knowing and powerful
But I can tell you
That life is beautiful
Seeing a sunrise
Or little bits of joy
Will make you realize
Your life's not a toy
Don't take these moments
The futures you haven't seen
Instead, hope that one day
You'll find where you've been
Find your soul and yourself
On this journey of life
Some might even call it
A journey of love
The poem I wrote for a friend to hopefully keep him from suicide. If you're reading this, don't die on me..
