Home alone,
With a gun,
And a knife.

Done with yelling,
Done with fights,
Just wanting to end their life.

Never being happy,
Never being proud.
Crying hard,
With pain screaming loud.

Wanting the suffering to end,
With no one to call,
Not even a "Friend".

Cuts have been made,
Everything going red.
Can finally end the pain,
With a bullet to the head.

A gun,
And a knife,
That's all it takes,
To end a life.

If this is based on a true story, then I am very sorry for that. But also, this poem just really makes me feel deep emotions; I like the raw pain this is written with, and I think it does accurately capture the pain of people who are in situations like this who are very depressed and contemplating suicide. It just feels real, like you are going into somebodies world!! And something about this poem makes me want to hope more and find happiness. So very beautiful work!!
