Take My Hand

Blood spilling over the ground.
Take my hand & help me out.
Never been afraid of death. 
Until it came to my last breath.
Desperate for air.  
No one really cares.
I'm broken hearted. 
And slowly becoming the departed.
Wondering what will happen next.
I open my eyes & my problem's fixed.
I see a white light.
As I stop trying to fight it.
No longer gasping for oxygen.
I will never have pain again.

Oh, no. It's a nice poem form-wise but very sad and even a bit shocking but I guess that could be good, you're obviously reaching for the emotional impact, so you've done we..

I just recently went through 5 suicides in 3 months. So I'm very emotional.
