Suicide

We lose people day to day 
In their mind they didn't wanna stay 
They didn't think they were enough 
And to them this world treated them rough
Sad they didn't know they mattered
Left many loved ones hearts shattered 
I cry when I think of the pain they went through 
Because I went through it too 
Cutting myself and staying up late
Crying and trying to determine my fate
Is my life worth living 
Is the pain they give worth giving 
For those of you who don't think you're worth it 
Always love yourself and tell someone you're hurting 
Don't take that step of taking your life 
Because those who love you will hurt and go through strife
You'll leave them questioning and falling apart 
When all they've ever done is love you from the start
So please think TWICE 
Before taking your life 
Because we've lost too many to this dreaded thing called 
                         SUICIDE
