Journal Entry (1 year old)
I don’t see the point in trying if nothings going to work. I can’t climb myself out of this hole when the walls keep breaking off with each attempt. And with each effort I only fall again with new injuries. Soon enough my whole body will break and have no strength to climb up again. My body is decaying and becoming a part of this dark, empty, nothingness. The walls are caving in and it’s raining. The rain cries for me and I’m drowning. I’m stuck and all I can do is wait for my last breath to come. The only comfort I have is the certainty of my demise.

Abstract Suicide
Jump off the ledge
Dive into the bleeding sea
Sink in warmth
An unrecognizable gore of art
Dilute and dissolve

Alive So Many Times
People kill themselves over financial loss
I chose to work harder
People kill themselves over lost love
I got over it
People with complicated brain chemistry have a high suicide rate
I haven't succumbed
People kill themselves over maddening injustices
I wrote more poetry
Close to one million people
die by suicide every year
That could have been me
so many times over
It could have been so many of us
But we're still here
Grateful

Out of Control
I was young
I was angry
I was completely out of control
I had self-loathe and disgust for myself
I was miserable with the path I chose
Unhappiness lead me into depression
And depression into an even darker road
Where ending my life seemed like the only thing to do
But most of all I felt like any day I would simply implode
I lied
I cheated
I screamed
Then everything just went quiet
And when I woke up
I thought everything would be ok
So long as I was being compliant
Not once ...

My Name Is Acceptance
My name is Acceptance ; not as in tolerance ; not as in compassion ; not as in live and let live. Acceptance ; as in ; any breath could be the last and that's okay ; as in ; you're gone but I guess I'll make due ; acceptance ; as in ; tonight might be the night I drive my car directly into the ocean and make myself at home, I just haven't decided yet ; acceptance as in life can be defined as one crippling loss after another ; I cannot remember a time when I didn't wake up grieving

Wrong Choices
staying out for the night
playing with matches
arsom favours unhinged minds
creating coctails of pills and booze
keeping everyone waiting
whether i live or die
another selfish act
verifying my asshole credentials
cause it fails every time
nothing falls alone
as hearts hit stone
like falling raindrops
leaving a blood red ringed rainbow
precious little breaths
makes this void so much worse
blindly coming undone
still life upon skewers
biting hard on bone
stops rising throat screams

Flying through the Clouds
Eyes glaze while rectifying
Can't blaze up without crying
Dullness intensifying
Tight chest, no relief, sighing
Another day not dying
Frequent, I think of flying
Sixth floor garage, applying
Laws of gravity; writing
A period, blood, drying
Dozens of coppers prying
To find mid fingers skying
Though, I swore to surviving
Such a grind, dignifying
But what's more edifying...
I'll probably die trying
Can't blaze up without crying
Dullness intensifying
Tight chest, no relief, sighing
Another day not dying
Frequent, I think of flying
Sixth floor garage, applying
Laws of gravity; writing
A period, blood, drying
Dozens of coppers prying
To find mid fingers skying
Though, I swore to surviving
Such a grind, dignifying
But what's more edifying...
I'll probably die trying

PCP (Pathetic Comatose People)
Rats chewed the hands, lips and nose off a four month old baby in a fleabag apartment building across the street from me. The mother was on Angel Dust. She had her head in the oven trying to kill herself. I asked her if she needed assistance. She said no. I helped her anyway.
People are so pathetic!
People are so pathetic!

If at first you don't succeed...(you know the rest)
Three hours ago
I tried to take my own life
I'll try again soon
I tried to take my own life
I'll try again soon

Should of used a gun instead
A 53 year old Canadian man suffering from hypothermia was hospitalized in Winnipeg after he jumped from a bridge four times. Police found him leaning over the railing of the bridge. Shivering & frostbitten, as he was about to plunge into the icy waters for the fifth time.
Despite the man's obvious determination, it is unclear why he didn't try a different method after the 1st attempt failed.
