Tonight is the night I end it all, this pain and suffering has to go
Anger builds inside me as I remember everything I’ve felt over the years
I take a pen and begin to write my final words to my so called family
To my dearest “familyâ€
So many years have you made me feel worthless and unloved
Never once did you hesitate to tell me what you thought of me
So many nights did you beat me till I was black and blue
I begged for you to stop but my cries always went unheard
So many times have I let my blood flow free because of it all
I came so close to knocking on deaths door on many occasions
I want you to always remember that you are the reason I’m doing this
You made my life so horrible, you made me want to die
And on this night I shall make my wish finally come true
So never forget, I died because of you
Signed your unwanted daughter
I fold my tear stained letter up and lay it on my desk
With shaking hands I pick up my weapon of choice
Its slim body so black and sleek, cold against my skin
I stare at it lying in my hands but I have no second thoughts
Tears flow down my cheeks as I raise it to my head
Gingerly opening my mouth I put the end on my tongue
My teeth bite down hard; my whole body is shaking now
The plastic so flavorless except for the sweet taste of death
I close my eyes tightly shut silently praying to the Lord
That he’ll forgive me for what I’m about to do and all my sins
With one final breathe I pull the trigger with my finger
The bang echoes throughout my lonely and dark room
My body drops to the ground in a crumpled heap with a loud thud
The gun falls from my grasp and slides along the ground
Blood flows swiftly from my head, the floor forever stained
A permanent reminder of me that my family shall never forget
But to the rest of the world I’ll just be another kid lost to suicide
Another child from a broken family who didn’t love her
Who was constantly beaten and told she didn’t need to be alive
Another child who turned to self harm which eventually lead to suicide
All because she felt so alone in this uncaring world that didn’t see
