Tonight

Tonight,
I filled the bucket up,
Sat down and breathe deeply,
As I am preparing to drown myself.

Tonight I tried to kill myself.
The same way I did before with my life but in a different twist.
I try not fighting myself to breathe again.

Tonight, I almost killed myself.
And as I type these words,
My face is all wet, red,
With mind floating,

Im not sure what words to put in.
Because heck, I tried to kill myself.
Again! And with 'again',
Do you know how many times I have tried it before?

I do not know!
All I know is when I try to pull my body back, something is pushing me more.
Tonight, as I get my face out of the water,

I can't breathe through my nose.
And I know something is wrong.
And I am afraid,
That sooner or later, I might not find comfort in writing.

That sooner or later or in no time, I might have done it--successfully.
