May break my bones

But when feeling shunned
The answer is always the gun

When wanting to end my life
I'll always reach for the knife

When life becomes too much to cope
My hand will always grab for the rope

When feeling like i've reached the ledge
I will always jump off of the edge

When ever it hurts to call
I will take my final fall

Hey, I too am saddened to see a write like this. I don't know you too well, but from what I do know, I really really truly hate that there is this pain in your life. I enjoyed talking to you back and forth. I hope everything will be alright. This was a good write, i liked the idea of matching up those together. Like you once offered me, I too can offer an ear to listen as well. if you need or want to that is. Take care.

I like this creative play on an old rhyme...even if it's a dark one: )
I have been down this road when I was just a little older than you are now, and I just hope in time, your life will turn around like mine has (and is). Another well expressed write Sprints, keep 'em coming...

Scorp.

i loved this poem! i liked how you took a saying like 'sticks and stones may break my bones' that everyone knows and turned it into a completely different meaning. and remember i am always here for you! just talk to me! i'll listen!
