my eyes flow with tears

My wrists are uncut
my body unbruised
yet my mind, soul, and heart

I do not know if this is the end of things
if my life will wisp away.

Life of yesterday, Death of today

Topic: Suicide

My heart is tied in knots
my eyes flow with tears
although I have my friends and family
I feel as if I'm not here.
My wrists are uncut
my body unbruised
yet my mind, soul, and heart
beat a continuous blue.
I do not know if this is the end of things
if my life will wisp away.
The only thing I am thankful for
is being here today.

Beautiful. I loved it. A lot of people can understand how you feel. If you ever need any one to talk to ...i'm here. Keep up the good work. And hang in there.

I take it that either your medication is not working or you are not taking it? Life doesn't have to be so difficult all the time. I do hope someone will help. I am encouraged by your attitude of thankfulness for your friends and family and appreciation of life. Go forward.

Simplicity is a good thing; the simple things that I am thankful for often bring me from the depths of my depression. This is a good write.
