No one was there

Would you notice if I died tonight?
Nothing seems to be going right.

No one would care
If I was no longer here.

I was so close
The knife resting on my skin.
There was nothing and nobody there
To stop me plunging it in.

But only one thing stopped me
The memory of you
I couldn’t, I wouldn’t
Break my promise to you

So I put the knife down
I walked away
And on that fateful night
I told my parents about my day

How I had come so close to dieing
They hugged me tight
Now both of my parents were crying
They told me it would all be all right.

Now I am happy no longer sad
For once even I seem kinda glad

Thank you my friend
For stopping what most certainly could have been my end
