Signs of Suicide

This is something I wrote that I feel.... expresses? Yeah. Expresses the way life is. Girls are suicidal, boys are suicidal, because of our fucked up society. I might eventually make this into a song, because that was its intended purpose, but for now it's just another poem.

Trigger warning.

Scars on her skin

Cracks in her heart

Don't you see what you're doing?

She doesn't know where to start

Her heart is beating

For all the wrong reasons

She doesn't know where to go

How is she supposed to leave

The place where she is trapped?

Sometimes saying what you want

Isn't such a good idea

Sometimes telling people what you think

Brings them down

Didn't you see the scars

Didn't you notice the fading light in their eyes

Didn't you see how hard they became

Didn't you feel their heart slowing down

Didn't you see the signs of suicide?

He wears baggy sweatshirts

And long faded jeans

When he wears a t-shirt

Bracelets cover his arms, long and lean

His words are ignored

His soul filled with pain

What can he do

To finally gain

Sometimes saying what you want

Isn't such a good idea

Sometimes telling people what you think

Brings them down

Didn't you see the scars

Didn't you notice the fading light in their eyes

Didn't you see how hard they became

Didn't you feel their heart slowing down

Didn't you see the signs of suicide?

He hangs on a rope

Tight on his pale neck

She lies on the floor

Pills scattered and wrecked

Her scars on show

His are too

And now you wish

You had figured out sooner

The signs of suicide

May not be quite obvious

For the people we know

Are caught and oblivious.

Stay strong, I love you guys.

Stay beautful.
