Life

Sometimes I wonder about my life 
And  how easy it would be to end it
With a gun or a knife
With this knife in my hand I'll just sit

I could have killed myself   
With the knife in my hand
But today I'll leave it on my shelf
And not kill myself as I planned

As I do not see it fit
Life just might be worth it 
For there is one and one is many
As we stand here together still yet steady
