Suicide Prevention

Sometimes when someone is been 
constantly belittled and pushed towards the edge,
they sometimes believe that giving up 
is the only option and eventually take the leap.

Life is never fair and never will be.
Its full of heartache, disappointment, hurt and betrayal.
And you are left completely alone to fend for yourself.

It is only when we are in a similar situation, 
that we begin to realize why one does it.
And most of us have been there. 
We wanted to take the leap, we wanted to end it with some pills or a rope.

However, something just stops us in our tracks.
A scared little inner voice that whispers "hold on."
And perhaps it is the reason why most of us are still here today...
