Suicide

Make believe space and time
I'll let you know which creeps up from behind.
Is it real or fake?
is this all a great mistake?
im ready to leave, i want to go 
above and beyond, through the unknown
hear me for yet im not forsaken
but here shortly my life will be taken
forgive me for relief 
its something i have to believe
the mental pain is far too great
when the time is right i will not hesitate

so is it fake or is it real?
im not really sure its just an emotion i lack to feel.

Thank you for the comment. I am sorry to hear of your loss but thank you for sharing. I am currently seeking help from some doctors. But I think I need more help from the faith side of things than anything. But things are looking up for me since I wrote this poem. thanks again
