Sad Poems and a Glimmer of Hope

Hope

If I were you I'd put that thing away.
You know it's not safe here.
I know you're not okay.
Let's just talk this through.
What happened to you?
I think I know already.
And I know you think you're ready,
But give me five minutes to let me speak.
I'm broken, like you. I have been so weak.
Believe me, I've been there before.
And I think I know what you're searching for.
An answer to this pain that won't go away.
A reason to stay afloat when drowning seems to be the only way.
Let me tell you though that nothing is worse than letting them win.
Believing you have no fight left and are ready to give in.
Don't give up now while your head is full of doubt.
Heavy depression taking everything in one long drought.
Your mind is so clouded, you're not thinking straight.
So listen to me and concentrate.
Please believe that what I'm telling you is true.
I have no reason to lie to you!
I've never met you before.
But as I said, I know what you're searching for!
Some meaning to your life after the damage is done.
So long and forgotten about, but you have nowhere to run.
Chased by your past and mistakes you have made.
Now look at the choice you've made.
Standing here lost at the barrel of a gun.
Ready to give in and just be done.
It's not worth it, you don't have to choose.
You have everything to lose.
Your missing something that I want to help you find,
I think I know if you'll just give me the time!
It's..
