Array ( [sid] => 51600 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Don't Give Up [time] => 2004-06-12 17:28:52 [hometext] => This is dedicated to everyone who has tried or thought about taking thier own life.....comments welcome. [bodytext] => We all have good and bad days,
But you are all special in so many ways,
To end your life won’t stop the hurt and pain,
As the people we’d leave behind would face the strain.

We should hold our heads up high,
Not long to be amongst the deceased in the sky,
Every day we wake up and greet the sun,
Is another battle we have fought and won.

Life is hard and we seek the easy way out,
But it is so normal to scream and shout,
So write down your inner feelings,
Then you’ll make some sense of their meanings.

Don’t give up you have come so far,
You should be proud of who you are,
I have read your brilliant work,
Felt your heartache and your hurt.

I know these paths you speak of and tread
I feel all the things you do inside your head,
So you are not alone in this big, scary place,
We are all a part of the same human race.

We all have inner strength hidden inside.
And we all at sometime want to run and hide,
But I am with you every step you take,
Our future is the one thing we must make.

This is one of those poems that the earth's population could benefit from at some time or another. If I could I would post it on every door.

Very inspirational, uplifting, positive and a great ode to live by.

What more could a person ask for then to have a friend who would take steps with them? I can think of nothing.

A remarkable poem that will likely stay with me for a long, long time.
