Sad, Romantic Poems

These Voices in my Head

"No more tears"

I say to myself, my eyes filled with fear

"Get up you lazy ass"

I know this time the feeling won't pass

"Don't bother breathing"

This is depression and suicide succeeding

"Just take the razor and swallow it all"

It's a metaphor you see, it's tricking you to finally fall

"Stain the floors with your worthless blood"

It screams at me, the voice in my head

It keeps on telling me that I should be dead.

Suicide isn't cowardly

Depression isn't a joke

Some people will take the rope and finally choke.

People end their lives to stop the pain

Some people may stand in front of a train.

They give up because they don't want to fight.

No one was there to hold onto them tight.

How lucky are we to have friends that care?

But sometimes I think it's too much for them to bare.

They become depressed just like me

And then they'll hear the voices and finally see

That I wasn't cowardly to end my pain.

I was brave.
