I hold
In my hand
Too many pills to swallow
All at once
But I'll do it
I have to
I need to
It's the only way to save me
Please help me
Have the strength
To live
Or to die
I just don't want
To hurt anymore.
Author notes
Sort of like a proprioceptive write, but really not one, especially since it's semistructured and stuff.
What I did was this: I pulled my laptop screen down so I couldn't see the screen (leaving just enough room for my hands), closed my eyes, and whatever came out, came out. This is what came out.
The title is unrelated, as you can see.
--EDIT--
On November 6th, 2007, I attempted suicide. OTC meds overdose, as this poem suggests. Though there are a few people--namely, my mother and my one-time shrink--that decided for themselves that I attempted suicide on impulse, this poem proves otherwise; it shows that I was thinking about it as early as September. Actually, it was a lot earlier than that--try four years earlier--that I started contemplating it, but it wasn't really serious till several months before I did it. Thanks to the fact that I had a minor panic attack type-thing, I'm alive and kicking. Yahoo?
Please tell me what you think
