Save a Life Tonight

Laying on the grass
Cool breeze blowing
Looking up at the sky
The starts keep glowing
So many questions
With no way of knowing
Which words to say
Which path to take
Is there hope for my future
Or is it already too late
Losing track of time
Puling out my nine
Just one pull of the trigger
And everything will be fine
And these are real thoughts
I've had in my own mind
And people who have similar thoughts
Are not very hard to find
Look to your left, look to your right
Who are you gonna let die tonight
Suicide is in record setting demand
And sometimes all it takes to save a life
Is as easy as reaching out your hand
United we stand, divided we fall
No matter how much we hate each other
Remember human we are all
Everyone has a limit
And every limit can be reached
If it's love we never exhibit
So let's all go out and do what we know is right
Reach out our hands and save a life tonight

This poem is wonderful, Nathan. If you dont mind I would love to reference this poem for my protest poem essay. It is a perfect example of protest against bullying.
