Death Not Being the Way
I held the knife so
close to my heart,
Like a foolish child
I sat and I cried,
Didn't realize what
I had done, what I
had tried,
Tears mixed with
blood, pulled myself
up, in tears
scribed;
"To those who don't
care, to those who
can't see,
Never give up always
thrive to be free"
Didn't know that so
many people would
later cry.
"Tried to be free,
yet I see this isn't
the way"
Friend at the door,
ran as fast she
could.
Too weak to say I'm
sorry, otherwise I
would.
In tears, looked at
the blue sad day.
When you come and
see this pool of
blood and me,
This isn't the way
my life was meant to
be,
