One day I stood in darkness,
And asked myself,
Do you want to live? Or die?
Will you beat yourself up day in and day out?
Frustration through each second yearning to shout,
What did I do so wrong?
To deserve this punishment in return?
Taking a step closer to the cliff,
I paused and thought,
And thought�..
What does my heart truly desire?
Is it to leave this world, my life, my children?
Easy solution to end my pain,
I closed my eyes embracing the rain.
Splashing on my face, I opened my mouth to taste.
Laying down quietly listening to the world around me,
Begging for wisdom to suddenly see.
No answer came to my mind,
My heartbeat the only sound I find.
I tried, I cried, I wept I slept
Awakening sunrise reflection in the mirror of another person�s eyes.
A stranger�s voice defining terms I grasp to know,
A decision made to let go of what I cant control.
