Why I stopped

I couldn't find a reason.
Nobody could convince me why.
All I saw was the edge,
And I wanted to try and fly.

And then one day, it changed.
My friend told inspired me to continue.
He said one should continue to go on,
To role model for those like you.

And my mind suddenly awoken!
My reason has finally arrived!
Why would I kill myself
When I can help others survive!

So my life is no longer about me,
I shall make it all about my peers.
I'm going to pass this message on,
So others will appreciate their years!

And so that's why I stopped,
So I can give reason to those in pain.
With scars, needles, cuts, and tears.
For we all have a reason to remain.
