My suicide 'attempt' - True

by Anna   Aug 7, 2005


I've overdosed, I can feel the pills inside
this is the beginning of my suicide
I'm starting to feel dizzy, its only been a short time
I can't believe it, I've done it
I am going to die

I can feel all the blood, and my throat really hurts
my breath isn't coming, when it does its short bursts
I can't believe I've done it
as my limbs go heavy and sag
I try to work it out, is there no going back?

I start to worry, and panic, and stress
what if it just f**ks my body
it'll all be a mess
as my head starts to throb,
I count the empty packet,
how many pills have passed my gob?

I wonder what the effect will be
if the they'll cause me to die painfully
I lie there guessing how quick it'll come
question if I want to do this, or have I been dumb?

and suddenly I think of the letter I wrote down
of my friends reading it all, I hear a crying sound
coming round I realise its me,
its like writing goodbyes to my friends has made me see
that theres so much more to come, whether good or bad
I can't be this selfish, I don't want them to be sad

I run to the toilet, stick my fingers down my throat
feeling retches from my stomach, see my meal all down the drain
but only a few f**king pills, so I try and throw up again
I continue until I'm empty, I've got nothing left to give
I lie on the floor and hope that I've thrown up enough pills to live

I don't care if I've done permanant damage, as long as I can tell my friends
that tonight they were my surviving thought
that tonight they were the reason I fought
especially one, miss shellymoo
that tonight I owe my life to my goodbye to you

~ Yeah this is true, please comment/rate it would mean so much to me ~

    Hi Baby, it's me again... just reading your poems, and the first time I read this I couldnt write anything because I was just crying and didnt know what to say.
    I know we've spoke about it now... and things are gettin better in some ways. You know how much I love you and your other friends... and family. Your an amazingly strong person. I know it doesnt feel that great. I'm just so glad your still here. Your my bestist friend. I dont know what I'd do without you. Your life is so precious to me. I'm always here for you... getting all emotional again...

    Basically... just keep puttin up with what life throws at ya, and I'll help you get through.

    Love always, Shelly Moo
