Stop saying that you'd rather die.
Stop hiding behind a veil of lies.

Stop telling yourself you're not good enough.
Stop running away when things get rough.

Stop making excuses so you don't have to try.
Stop writing words that make you cry.

Stop threatening to cut yourself.
Stop refusing to ask for help.

Stop believing he was the only one.
Stop thinking your life is over and done.

I know it's hard, but someday you'll realize
There's a good life ahead of you… Just open your eyes.
This poem was directed towards a very close friend of mine, you know who you are, but as I got into writing it, I realized that some parts could be directed towards me as well...

Anyway, I wrote this last night when I was frustrated with soooomebody and her obsession with wanting to die every time someone else made a bonehead move. I just want her to stop it already and realize that he's not all that special and she doesn't need to kill herself because of him. In fact, she doesn't have to kill herself over any of the crap that's going on in her life.

If I could trade places with her for a week, I would. I'd probably die in the process because I'm princess weakling, but she'd be able to take it easy for that week.

Now before someone else gets onto me about "oh, she's always causing you grief and making you mad!" I'm going to say this:
YOU, my dear, cause me grief and make me mad quite a lot!! You don't see me breaking up with you over it every single time. And you're probably going to come up with some stupid excuse as to why I shouldn't be friends with her, but honestly, you can't pull us apart no matter what you say. We're like two peas in a pod ever since she rolled that little marble onto my desk in science class in 8th grade. She's my one and only best friend. I'll always have her, but I won't always have you. That's how it should be, and that's how it is.

Ok, now that I've ranted...... Hope ya liked my poem!
