thank you very much. I know mental battles have a lot of stigmas attached, especially being suicidal and when people have attempted it. I wanted to express that isn't selfishness, they don't want to hurt you but they just don't feel as if there is another option, as they have exhausted all the other options. In a way, in a world and head full of chaos and lack of control, it is the one thing they feel they can be in control of and finally put an end to their pain with. It isn't a nice way, but people can only be pushed so much and some times help comes too little, too late, or no amount of healing can fix the previous damage.

I've always wanted to try to convey the feelings and struggles of those who are judged and often cannot find the words to explain it themselves. I also hope that anyone who has struggled with issues I write about, will realise they are not alone and someone out there understands them and doesn't judge. Sometimes that can be enough, to know you're not completely alone ?

The final stanza of this is outstanding.
I really felt the emotion and the depth in this final part. Well done.
