i can't...

the gun's at me lips,
cold metal against warm skin.
I think of my misery,
I think of my happiness.
the saddness rules me,and
This is the only way to end it.
The only way to end the suffering and
the lonilness.
But I still can't pull the trigger.
I can't leave my family,broken as it is.
I can't leave my life.
I can't leave my dreams.
I'm not ready to give it all up yet.....

I've been there.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
