Jenni Preece Poet I do not know?

My Sweet Temptation

Suicide
My sweet temptation
A sudden fixation
My sudden destruction

Inside the fire

Suicide
My sweet temptation

There are those that beg me to not do it

Others would throw a party
In "honor" of my death
They'd be happy

But the ones that actually have a heart
Try to stop me

But they only change the subject
My smile is only skin deep

Laughter is something I don't remember the feeling of

My facial muscles have become weak
For they have nothing to do

I am so close to the edge
But no one understands
My sweet temptation

Suicide

My one
My only
My sweet temptation

Help me fight it?
For I will die trying
It is something I do not entirely want
But a possibility nonetheless

My one
My only
My sweet temptation

My suicide
