Cry of the Heart
Suicide
Just saying the word breaks my heart
admitting that my son died from it,
shatters my heart once again
I imagine it is in billions of pieces now
even worse is the thought that comes to
my own mind occasionally that maybe that
is the only way for the pain to end
The lie that seems to chase me everywhere
I go and whatever I do, just like it chased my son
It is NOT the answer and in my reality I know this,
but the nature of the beast steals into your pain
and whispers the lie over and over again
I REFUSE the lie and know that it is not true
but I also know that others hear the lie and in their
pain, they believe it
Please, do NOT believe it
the lie continues to spread pain and darkness
TALK about it
Join the fight against it
LOVE one another
SHOW KINDNESS
FIGHT the lie
