Death

Freedom what you seek
From the pains of life
From the people's burden
Pills, a gun, a knife?

Why would you just run?
Why would you abscond?
What is it we've done?
Why won't you respond?

Phone torn from the wall
No contact gets through
No one's voice of reason
Can bring itself to you

I've seen this before
Suicide attempts
And we'll get over it?
Death, we'll just accept?

Oh, so we won't miss you?
You're better off dead?
Your loved ones surround you...
You're tweaked in the head

I have witnessed death
Many, many times
And you will never care
You'll never see these rhymes.

But I, however, care
I haven't a choice
No matter the pain,
In love, I will rejoice

More precious than gold,
I won't throw away
Nope, I live for love
I am here to stay.

You drive me mad, you do
Every one of you
But through these wicked times,
I still can't hate you.

I have withered grief
You're not alone, you twit
No matter what you say
I'll love you through it.

Thank you friend

My best friend tried to kill himself last night... had to write it out, lol

Holy crap! Well, Im sorry you had to go through that expirience in order to produce this poem, although it could be argued that all great endevours of art and expression are instigated by such expiriences. I hope that whatever ails your friend becomes less of a threat to thier continued occupation of the mortal realm, and that the attempt to remove himself from the ranks of the living has not caused any lasting damage.

Both of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

T.B.

Thanks a whole bunch, friend.

You're one of the few people who keep me on this site.

I was pretty angry at him at first, and I completely fell apart when it happened... in fact, I just woke up from a nap, and that was the first time I've slept since this happened. But I talked to him on the phone, and he apologized like cray, and promised he'd never do it again. And although I've never been suicidal pers-e, I HAVE been in his crappy situation, and I have come close to killing myself before, though in my case, it was on accident, and alcohol related...

After thinking about it, I can't be too mad at him. I know what its like to experience hell, then have no one around to help you, or tell you its okay at the end of the day. I was pissed at him for putting me through this, but when I had my incident, my fiance was there to witness it... I was being sad, careless, and stupid, just as well. I can't judge.

I honestly thought for about a day that I would never talk to him again...

But, that's not gonna happen.

He's my best friend, and he's important to me personally for a reason that kinda seems petty or irrelevant, but to me, it made a huge difference in my life, and I'm never gonna forget it.

Sorry but after looking over your tylenol thread and this one I came to the conclusion that you made this up to get some attention.. you said he took half a bottle of tylenol.. you go to ats.. you say you called 911..ok.. you say your fiance made him puke.. then you say the next day is is ok joking and all that. Then you say he got 'tested' and the tylenol isnt in his system.. And after that you say he is in a loony bin.. At least you got your attention

reply to post by DarkAngel8


Wow... first of all, you might want to make a comment about the poem, since thats the topic of the thread we are actually in.

Second, quit being such an insensitive jerk!

Warmest regards.

Like I told the other parasites, no one cares what you think.

You are COMPLETELY wrong, first of all.

Attention? Really?

People who post dramatic "Callin' you out!" troll-ish posts like yours, who obviously have no real intimacy with any other human being on the planet, no respect, tact, or the ability to see that people are not ALWAYS the worst they can be, generally are at the worst that they themselves can be. Meaning, you as a person are at your worst, and you are less than you wish you were, therefore you think the same of everyone else. Level 2 psychology.

That's just a personal observation from me, as I recently finished that class.

Its not an attack, its an observation.

Please keep your hang-ups squirming and suffering in your own life, and not try to place them on me, when you don't know me, what I stand for, anything about my life or the lives of my friends, or even my name.

Casting your own pain and hang-ups on another person is the worst, most devastating thing you could do to them. Granted, its easier to do to an anonymous online person, someone who you care literally nothing for, but consider that everyone you speak to is a human being, and everyone is capable of pain.

You didn't hurt my feelings. I'm used to tactless trolls.

But most people get cut pretty deeply from people posting the kind of hateful, misleading bs that you posted here. And, I find people who *get off* on posting that kind of hurtful dribble are pretty pathetic, and honestly, a fairly worthless human being. A waste of functioning organs.

Also, if you harass me regarding a completely separate thread again, I will report you.

I asked a mod to delete that thread because I was receiving too much flak, and if I continue to respond to you parasites, I will probably get banned.

So, please make an effort to obtain a life outside of the internet, it will do you wonders.

And, don't go turning something that's been a monumental tragedy to me into a pawn for your reverse attention-seeking trolling. You're not fooling anyone, and it doesn't make you look cool.

Wow... first of all, you might want to make a comment about the fictional poem, since thats the topic of the thread we are actually in.

Second, quit being such an insensitive jerk!

Warmest regards.

I did..She said because her friend done that she wrote the poem. So the two threads are about the same thing. The comment was about both. Even if its content is based on fiction it is a nice poem.

Haha ok coming from the one who jumped on ats after their friend supposedly tried to commit suicide.. also you can report me but it will do no good because you said yourself the inspiration for the poem came from what you mentioned in the other thread. And it wasnt an attack. As for attention seeking trolling.. Your not good at hiding it at all. That my friend is why you was getting all that flak you mentioned. Like I said my other post and this one isnt an attack.. Just an observation..ha Ive spent enough time here. I dont bust back because I shoot first.

The two threads are not about the same thing. One of them is seeking support (which failed miserably, as ATS is full of people like you), and the other is a creative expression of the situation. Also, its not fiction. You're wrong.

You ripped off one of MY quotes in this poorly written paragraph.

Did you catch that? God, I'm a fabulous writer. If you took any time to read that thread, you will note that when it happened, I was alone, and no one would answer their phones. ATS was my only option as a venting ground... but I won't make that mistake again. Too many empty souls linger around here, attempting to justify themselves and their own hang-ups by knocking others down, and assuming they are less than they appear to be. Like I said, people like that really serve no purpose.

Maybe I'm not good at hiding "it" because I'm not hiding anything.

But, no... that's not possible. That would imply that you are wrong.

And you're never wrong, are you?

I dunno how you expect me to take you seriously. I'm not good at hiding imaginary lies, am I? Well "your" not so good at spelling. Or psychology.

Try talking positively to the mirror today, then you may forget to return to this thread and blame me for your own misguided dissatisfaction with life.

Did you catch that? 

Before you go running to a mod again, observe this... I didnt 'catch' that because it was intentional. Also I don't look in the mirror and talk to myself but I have a nagging feeling that you do. One more thing to add... My spelling is excellent. You made my point though, both threads are about the same topic. Thanks for that. You got all that 'flak' because we don't like trolls who want attention.. Find a bridge to hide under.. Good day

You have nerve to call ME the troll.

Don't say "we" like you're part of some exclusive ATS VIP gang. Psychology again... putting yourself on a pedestal that doesn't exist.

Its not my problem if you lack compassion. Not that I particularly care about your issues... although it becomes more of my business if you harass me for nothing.

Your spelling is excellent? This is the first paragraph you've presented to me that didn't have errors. Congrats on that. Like i said, no one cares what you think. Leave me alone.
