Post subject:  to die...

here's a poem i wrote partly based on hamlet and partly based on my own experiences:

To die...

Too much hurt for me to take –
Sometimes I fear that I may break.
Events conspire to cause me pain,
Ache my heart and pound my brain.
I long to die and be set free.
How wonderful to cease to be!
Violent thoughts spin round my head
But I cannot act with limbs of lead.
The weight of conscience weighs me down
For to this life I have been bound.
Dare I risk Almighty’s wrath
By straying from His chosen path?
I must choose twixt life and death –
Solid flesh or final breath –
But can I gamble eternal life
Just to ease my earthly strife?
I would my own quietus make
But there is just too much at stake.


what do you reckon?

that's an awful thing to say and if that's how you feel, i'm praying for you. i was suicidal for several years, so i know what it feels like to be in that place, but i pulled through and now i've found incredible peace and joy in god - things can and do get better if you only HOLD ON. the whole point of the poem is that there's too much to lose by suicide - life is precious so hold on to it.

Oh wow, glad to see you're not suicidal, it's axtually very beautiful in it's own little way. I guess this is the way that a lot of people feel when it's just terrible. But great job on this!!
