Suicide

The darkness
Closing in
All around
Seeing nothing
But black
Afraid
Wanting to run
Your strapped down
Fighting to be free
Can't get up
Need to run
You call for help
No one hears you
All of a sudden 
The dark turns to light
You see clearly
Everyone around you 
Knows not of your existence
Afraid still
Don't know why
You call again
No one even looks your way
Help you say
Help again
No one hears you 
Give up
You just give up
No one will care

You're gone now
Everyone cares
Why?
They didn't care in the first place
No one understood
No one ever will
Your gone now
Now everyone wishes they heard you
But they didn't
They couldn't stop you
Your choice
No one would help
That's all you needed
That one person to say
I am here
I will help you
No one did
No one 

Alone now just like before 
Looking
Watching
Stalking the one's that were like you
But they got help
They lived
You didn't 
You are now 
and will forever be
Dead
