[hometext] => Just a poem i wrote about suicide
[bodytext] => I’m stood atop a cliff, The sea breeze is blowing through my hair and filling my nostrils, The sky is dark with storm clouds, I look down ad see the drop before me, All I want to do is jump, Too end my suffering, I stand and think, I’m being greedy, It would end my suffering, But what of my family?, They would suffer because of me, Or do I think too much of my-self?, Why would it cause any one pain if I was no longer here?, Then, From behind me I can hear a voice call out to me, It’s telling me to stop and think, But that’s what I’ve just done, Or did I?, Why is my mind so clouded?, No, I realise this is foolishness, I turn to back away from the cliff but as I do I slip, I can feel the ground slipping from beneath me, I close my eyes knowing what is coming, I start to fall, I can hear a woman scream, I’m still falling, Still falling?, I should have hit the floor by now, Why haven’t I?, I open my eyes, I haven’t stopped, [comments] => 3 [counter] => 162 [topic] => 55 [informant] => Zexen [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 6 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )
