Desperation and fear guide me
Darkness and death call me
I search for a way to end it all
A gun, no, too messy
A knife, no, too painful
Pills, worth a try
Frustration mounts as I cant find any
Look in the kitchen
Search the bathroom
Even look under the bed
At last I find what I need
But will it be enough
Carefully I count the pills
Knowing in this I will fail
Its only Tylenol after all
Have to know how many I took
So I can know how many to try
When I wake up from this nightmare
Its too long swallowing one by one
Just throw them all in my mouth
Nothing better to chase it down
Than a bottle of vodka
The burning doesnt last
My throat goes numb
It doesnt take long
For my stomach to resist
I cant keep them down
The pain is almost too much
The way my stomach feels
I might as well have swallowed gasoline
I knew death wouldnt come easily
I wonder how many tries it will take
How many pills will I have to swallow
Or should I just take the easy way
The one way I know to end it all
With the gun barrel in my mouth?

This is a heart wrenching write, so deep and emotional. I'm sorry you are feeling there is no other way out, I have been there, felt that. After many painful months I am still recovering though I do believe I am working through it all. Hold your head up high and stay strong...
