*Disclaimer: This is a poem inspired by recent events with someone dear to me. It channels the perspective of a person trying to save someone that wants to end it all.
Do you know what it's like to have someones life in your hands?
No really, their life... In your hands
Every word you speak could be the last
Consumed with thoughts of moments past
Someones sanity depends solely on you
Deciding to end it all and effect your life too
To be the chosen one with so much depth and burden
Knowing you have the power although the outcome is uncertain
Do u know what its like to have someones life in your hands?
Well I do and trust me... It's a delicate place to stand
* Happy Veterans Day to those that sacrificed their family and lives for our freedom. And this also goes to Veterans that have committed suicide due to the countless things they saw and encountered. But if you are a Veteran or anyone that is thinking of committing suicide don't do it, it's not worth it. You cannot leave this earth until God says it's time. And if nothing else... think of all the lives you will effect, there are people that care about you more than you know, people you may not even think do. You only have one life, don't end it mid-way and deprive yourself of all that life has to offer, anything worth having is worth the storm.
