Something has pushed you into wanting to kill yourself. Something has made you hate who you've become, something has made you want to give your life to it. It could be anything. Anything could be fucking you up right now, fucking you up so much you want to die. It could be anyone, anyone could be making your life hell, and now that's where you want to go. I'm just a stranger in your soon to be over life, you don't know anything about me except for the fact that I am writing to you to try and save you. You want to end it all, this is it. You've made the date, the date being the ENDING OF YOUR LIFE. And once you kill yourself it's lights out. Let's say you take a shot to the neck, the bullet pierces through the flesh. You can feel death upon you, you're slowly dying. You're slowly losing to whatever made you want to commit suicide. And then your heart stops beating, your life is done. You've lost. You've lost your life, and the battle. Such a shame. Before death, you told everyone you were fine right? But you were losing each time you lied. You were losing each time you cut into your skin. Each time you cried you were losing a bit more. And now that it's over, you've lost. The battle is over, you surrendered. The main cause of suicide is depression. Say you were depressed, say that depression was the battle. The battle took everything from you, it killed you slowly each day. Each cut was something so sweet for your battle, it was a battle scar that you could have worn out proudly after you won. But no, now it's just some remains from the battle. The battle loved how weak you were, how worthless it made you feel. But in all reality, your actions, words, and thoughts were so important. You, yourself were so important. But you let the battle make you feel like nothing, and now you are nothing more than another loss to this battle. Another victory for the battle, another defeat for our society. You're just another loss right? No! You could be a victory, and it will be hard. You will have to give up many things in order to keep your life, but if you stay strong and keep on fighting you will be able to say, "I'm alive, I made it. I've won, through all the sacrifices I've made, it all was worth it because my heart continues to beat. You have the opportunity to win. You have the chance to carry on, and live life the way you want. But if you give up your life and lose the battle, whatever your battle is, the world will be affected. You matter much more than the battle has made you think. You're not worthless, you're not weak, you are strong. You deserve to live just like everyone else. You're not alone, the battle only makes you think that way. You should know that you have me, I will always be there. You do not know me, I'm just someone living in your world trying to stay alive too. I speak from experience. I've been in your place, I wanted to end it all. I wanted to give up, because "there was nothing left to live for". But I was wrong, and I'm so glad I decided to move on and keep fighting. Now I encourage you to do the same. You have a choice, to win or lose. Your battle will make you feel like you have no options left, your battle will force you into suicide. But you have more than one option! You can do this, you can win. You have a life, please do not take it! Please, take these words and use them as a weapon to win the battle. Words are so very important, go out and speak to somebody about what your feeling. Feelings are critical in life, we express them each day that we live. Living is winning, living is proof that you are strong and you are totally worth it! Nobody can do this on their own, that's why I'm here. I'm here, for you. And I can't be here for you, if there's no you to see tomorrow and the rest of your life. Hear that, "your life". The msot important thing, your life. Don't take it! Win the battle, for me, for your loved ones, but for the tomorrow that is yet to come, the tomorrow where you could be saving someone's life and helping them win too.
