I had to write something for my english class after listening to a song by Hunter Hayes and the first thing that came to mind was a conversation I had with my boyfriend the night before.
He told me about the time he went to the hospital because he wanted to commit suicide, how he had to stay away for a few days, and then resorted to drugs to take away the pain he felt since seventh grade.
The tears I mentioned, weren't just for the image so you guys would know the pain he had, or the pain that I had. They were real. We both sat there for an hour or two just crying because of different reasons. He was crying because he hated thinking about what had happened to him, I was crying because I wish I was there for him and because I know what he went through. I was sent away for 3 days when I did the same thing.
I hope that people will realize that they aren't alone. Just because not everyone understands, doesn't mean that no one will. You just have to give it time. There will become a time in your life where someone will give you hope, and show you that killing yourself isn't the best choice to do. Me and my boyfriend are still indeed dating, and yes he has had thoughts of hurting his self as well as myself, but with each other, we are perfectly fine and I don't think I could have asked for better.
Thank you for reading my poem. I hope you guys enjoyed it.
