Billy Thekidster Poet Rhyme

Suicide

What lies on the other side, no living person can truly know, 
but here's a little thought for you to ponder should you ever decide to prematurely go. 
What if you kill yourself to rid yourself of all your depression and misery, 
only to then take all those horrible feelings with you to "live" with for eternity. 
Stay here and continue to fight those horrible demons. 
If you fail, well you tried, 
but never giving up may very well have earned you your much deserved place in heaven.
In any event, Life is the only true gift that we have all got
so I try to tolerate even life's most horrible, vile and depressing crap.

Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen March 17, 2010 at 3:39 AM The words that you have shared here, William, are words that carried me through young adulthood and into the joys of old age. Thankfully, someone said similar things to me once upon a time. Forgiving and not dwelling on personal injustices also helps. God be with us all as we journey through the ups and downs of life...remembering to stay close to God. Lovingly, Dane Ann

Bathsheba Bathsheba March 17, 2010 at 2:33 AM Not sure about Heaven William but I love your message because it speaks the truth about staying and fighting your demons - Folk that have these tendencies are not always going to feel like they do - There is light at the end of the tunnel - Its just sometimes rather difficult to spot - Thanks for a fab share - I didnt mean to be disrespectful about your faith -:)
