How to Live

by Rayne   Sep 7, 2008


Once upon a time
there was a fragile girl
she had a broken soul
and tried to leave this world
six or seven times
all failed suicides
she wanted to get away from here
but it wasn't quite her time

For she had met a boy
who left her broken and bruised
she had given up on everything
and soon began to use
several months went by
she had yet to speak a word
she than became a myth
in a very wicked world

and ambulance got the call
and rushed at the sound of her name
and in the mist's of limbo
she met a boy who had done the same

He kissed her flushed cheeks
and took her by the hand
he held her in his arms
and began to help her stand
he place his scarred wrists
over her stomach and sang a song
and all at once she was alive
and all the pills were gone

it was then she finally realized
she had something left to give
he showed her not just how to survive
but also how to live
