As I stand upon the ghostly shore
I see the truth in waves
They tell me that I am different
They let me know they want me
I hear the voices from the wind
The skies carrying the tears
People do not notice me
To them I am a ghost
Another lost soul for which they do not care
They walk into me an take no heed
I scream their names but none will hear
To them I do not exist
I take the blade and pierce my flesh
The pain takes the suffering away
This does not last forever
And I again feel emotional pain
I look for a way out of this world
There are so many options
It does not matter how it ends
No one would glance my way
I go to make the final jump
When voices call my name
I look up and do not understand
Why people want me now
They are telling me they love me
They do not want me to leave
I still do not understand
Again I try to jump
To the beckoning waves below
I am pulled from the cliff
And they take me to my home
I see faces of people I long forgot
And the tears begin to spill
Now I realise what it means
To have someone there to care
I shake my head and understand
They all love me . . .for who I am
This is a poem to alert people about suicide. People who are rejected from others sometimes think the pain is all too much, so they take their own lives. Some people do not understand that others love them for who they really are. Please comment if you support this.
This is personal for me because sometimes I wish it would all be over, sometimes I wanted to kill myself and save me some pain. But with help from friends and no counsellors, I came to realise that everyone has meaning in life, and no soul is wasted, empty or useless.
