I threw my life away, but you
said to me "today is not your day".
I tossed everyone and everything
aside no longer could I hide how
I felt inside.
You were with me during the hours
I spent in consciousness and
unconsciousness.
No longer could I take anymore
stress.
I thought it was my time to go,
but you embraced me and told
me "no it is not your time".
I tried to take my own life but
you gave me second chance.
Now I glance back and realize
what I have done was selfish, not
only did my actions affect me, it
also affected everyone around me.
I also realize I have alot to live for
and now I'm so glad I got help
before it was too late.
Why did I hate life so much that
I wanted to throw it away?
Thank you Lord for helping me to
stay.
In return, I will live my life for you,
because I'm really thankful that you
saw me through.
