Wanting To Die

Last night I had a breakdown
all I wanted to do was leave
so I took a bunch of sleeping pills
but they didn't work for me

next i tried to hang myself
I looked around for a rope
I didn't find a single one
that I could slip around my throat

then I thought of jumping
to my death off of a bridge
but then I realized
that there were no bridges where I lived

a new thought came to me
I could shoot myself instead
but as I searched my place
there was no gun to place to my head

the knife was my last try
I would place it to my throat
for so long I have been waiting to die
the knife was my last hope

I looked in my room
I found the knife
I slid it across my neck
and slowly ended my life

next my love walked in
he was my very best friend
the only words he said to me
were "we will meet again"

he took the knife I had used
in the light my blood shined
then he slid the knife across his throat
and for me he ended his life

he got down on the floor
and pulled me in his arms
we would be together forever
we didn't mean any harm
