SUICIDE IS...NOT THE ANSWER

At one point I couldn't go on
I didn't want to face the world another day
Life was too hard, and the world was too cruel
I wanted to make it go away.

So, I called a friend to say good-bye
I said this was best for everyone, even me
Then I wrote a little note
Telling mom and dad not to cry.

I told them to try and understand
that this had to be
it was best if I was gone
and I hoped this they would see.

I swallowed the pills
and started to cry
I couldn't do it
I was too much a coward to die.
So, if you are thinkingof taking your life
please reconsider
and put down that knife...
