Anne Nicola Poet I do not know?

What If

WHAT IF?
You think you’re alone
You think no one cares
You think you’re alone
Because no one ever cares
Well let me ask you a question…
What if…?
What if you pulled the trigger
What if you slashed the knife
What if you took the pills 
That would forever end your life
Because then you’re dead
You’re gone
You can never come back
You can’t come back to the family that will miss you
The family that will mourn and cry, 
and always ask
Why
Why did you leave if everyone does care?
Why, when we care
‘You think you’re alone
You think no one cares
Well let me tell you something
Someone does care
So don’t end your life
Keep living
Keep pushing
Make them see you
Make them care
Because you’re not alone
People do care

Pandita Sietesantos July 8, 2014 at 6:46 PM Hi Anne, this is such a deep, insightful, powerful write. I enjoyed reading it and the meaningful questions that you posed. And, yes, there are people who do care even when things seem utterly hopeless. Well done!
