At the Edge
Im at the edge and im about to fall
I just want to jump off the edge and end it all
My life is in pieces my mind is astray
Its all i can do to keep my demons at bay
I cant last much longer im barely hanging on
My happyness is now forever gone
Im afraid to die but no one can tell
What if i die and there really is a hell
Ive heard the stories but can it really be
Its just the thought of suffering forever scares the shit out of me
I just dont know how much more i can take my soul is bending and its about to break
God i need relief and i need it now
Things have to change i dont care how
I just want to jump off the edge and end it all
My life is in pieces my mind is astray
Its all i can do to keep my demons at bay
I cant last much longer im barely hanging on
My happyness is now forever gone
Im afraid to die but no one can tell
What if i die and there really is a hell
Ive heard the stories but can it really be
Its just the thought of suffering forever scares the shit out of me
I just dont know how much more i can take my soul is bending and its about to break
God i need relief and i need it now
Things have to change i dont care how

You know what you need? I think you need a cat. Or a dog. All I'm saying is that if you get either a cat or a dog, petting it has been proven to reduce both stress and blood pressure. Additionally, you'd be helping your local shelter. Not that I don't like the poem. In fact, I love it! I am just getting a gut feeling that it's more than just blowing off steam. Don't do anything you will regret--or that you won't live to regret.
