They doubted me.
And thought I couldn't do it.
Thats how it all started.
At first, it wasnt easy to see.
I felt alone.
Broken down.
There was no way out.
I'd never be found.
My world was dark.
And there was no hope.
I didnt want them to find me.
My suicide would take place at the park.
I told them I was going on a walk.
The wind rustled my hair and the trees.
Chills ran up and down my spine.
And death suddenly wasn't such a comforting thought.
I got to the park and sat on the grass.
Then pulled out the blade.
Now I didn't know if this was what I wanted.
My mind was rushing, everything went so fast.
I slowed down to think and before long.
I realized what I would do.
I stood up and aloud I said...
"You know what? I'm going to prove them wrong."
