I sit on the floor
Tears drip from my face
I take my time
I move at my own pace
Pills in one hand
Ready to swallow
Inside my shell
I am hollow
I need to do it
And need to do it fast
Before someone catches me
And stops me from my last
My days on earth
Have been nothing but pain
If I kill myself
What will I gain?
Nothing at all
Is all I can think
I stand up
Before I throw the pills at the sink
Then he comes in
And looks me in the eye
He held me, he told me
Not to cry
I wanted to do it
Believe me I did
But he asked me,
"How could you have been so stupid?"
From that time
That he pleaded
I could tell
I was wanted and needed.
