Poem
Lightning flashes and the rain falls as the storm rages on tonight, the family is so worried about you and wanting to know you're alright. Late, last Sunday afternoon you tried to take your own life, twice with the same medication that was supposed to end your strife. You were taken away and we don't even know where you are right now, but everyone is just hoping that you can comeback somehow. What ever happened to you, that caring person you once were, who could always make me laugh oh, how I do remember her. You took care of me when I needed someone to be there, so many good memories flash back of the fun times we would share. We are all still wondering why you are suffering in depression, and how could you ever hurt us with such unexpected aggression. You left your teenage son alone in a state of panic and fear, now we can only wish and wait for some kind of real cure. I wrote this after my aunt tried to commit suicide last Sunday, June 15th. Thankfully, she was not successful. She has been struggling with depression for about 10 years and this is the worst state that we've ever seen her in. Our family and the doctors keep trying to help her, but nothing has worked yet. So, we will have to wait and see where things go from here, as we still have no word on her current condition. We are not a religious family, but it might help if you could send out your positive thoughts, and maybe keep us in your prayers during this difficult and confusing time.
