The Serenity Prayer

 |
If ignorance is Bliss,
Then I am in Hell
You know your life has gone to shit when instead of saying. "Be careful
there are a lot of nuts out there tonight", your parents say, "be
careful, there a lot of cops out there tonight."
Stephanie
It's a dark summer's night and I am alone
Alone as usual, just sitting at home
All my friends are away, some more far than others
I reside in my room, desperately hiding from my mother.
With my heart all in pieces and no one to care for
I remember that someone whom I had loved once before
First love was for my friend Stephanie, she was my very best.
But all I can do is cry, for in peace does she now rest.
Other friends who live very close by, all seem just so far away.
There is no one whom I can talk to, no one to give me a hug today.
Sometimes I wonder, should I take my own life?
Just a quick slit to my wrists, with a big, sharp, kitchen knife.
Yet I never go through with it, yet not today that is
I can't even talk about it, unlike those other kids.
Who knows what the future hold, what it has in store for us.
Planning a life and a career, or dead from meningitis.

G.V. 4/11/97
All my life i've been climbing rocks,
trying to reach the sky above.
Then one day a cloud came down,
and showed me a heaven I never knew there was
So I unhooked the saftey line from me, removed the helmet and pads for my knees.
Then I laid down and closed my eyes, only to wake up and begin to cry.
Inside/Outside
If you're fucked up on the inside then you're fucked up on the outside
Doesn't matter what you say or do, doesn't matter what you think is true
If you're fucked up on the outside then you're fucked up on the inside
Doesn't matter what the others say, cause all those mouths just get in
the way.
Gone
As I looked deeply into your eyes, I had so much hatred for you inside.
But that won't happen again, for my life has come to an end.
If only there were someone there, to listen to what I had to say,
I wouldn't have been so depressed, I wouldn't have taken my own life away.
As I picked up the knife, and looked into the mirror,
I wished that you could have loved me, I wished you could have been sincere,
As I felt the pressure, dig deep into my skin,
I thought I was doing the right thing, I thought I was going to win.
As the blood grew all around,
My breath shortened, and at last, I fell to the ground.
As I look down at you, from up in the sky,
I realized I lost the battle,
I realized it wasn't my time to die.
Richard Cory
Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
We people on the pavement looked at him.
He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
Clean favored and imperially slim.
And he was always quietly arrayed,
And he was always human when he talked.
But still he fluttered pulses when he said "Good-morning",
And he glittered when he walked
And he was rich…yes, richer than a king.
And admirably schooled in every grace;
In fine, we thought that he was everything,
To make us wish that we were in his place.
So on we worked and waited for the light;
And went without the meat, and cursed the bread.
And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
Went home and put a bullet through his head.

Suicidal Overview
Sitting with a silvery knife,
Clutched in creamy white knuckled hands
A sharp blade pressing into,
Skin dampened by sweat
I think back,
To the days when only scraped knees
Brought tears,
Days when Mom
Was here
Back when I had nothing
In the world to fear, All I saw was light
Stars Sparkling, Like silver
Each one I thought, Put in the sky for me
Cute little drawings, Straight A's
Everything was going my way
Then one day I thought of you
A thing only known, To me 5 years ago
It hit me like a ton of bricks, I felt as brittle
Could break under any pressure
But I kept going
Kept trying to live
The people around me, Were no help at all
All their teasing and tormenting, Echoed in my head
Until one day I crossed the fine line
I had been balancing on
Or I should say I fell off
Plunged into the darkness
I am stuck in today
And though they saw me crack
Saw me wallowing in tears, Saw me reliving all my fears
They kept on with their lives, All passing me by
No one cared, I didn't matter
As I don't matter now
So as I sit here and ponder,
Whether to do myself in
Remember me always,
Cause you were a great friend

In the event of my Demise
In the event of my Demise
when my heart can beat no more
I Hope I Die For A Principle
or A Belief that I had Lived 4
I will die Before My Time
Because I feel the shadow's Depth
so much I wanted 2 accomplish
before I reached my Death
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from My eyes
I Loved All who were Positive
In the event of my Demise
