Brutal day

I almost committed today

I could have died

I had reasons to

Overwhelmed with everything over the past couple week

Had a dream I cut myself and died

I sat beside my knives today and just stared

I told my friend I'm fine and she saw right through me

I texted my other friend

He came over and I gave him my knives

So much s**t has happened 

I can't even begin to comprehend it

While staring those knives down

I realized I couldn't go through with committing

I needed someone to put me out of my misery

I broke 

I didn't know I'd come to this day of wanting to be gone

Yet I think I will forget what happened

Repress this day forever 

And live like I was happy before

i love how this piece never uses the word "suicide" if it wasn't for the second line this poem could be about someone thinking of murder or suicide just a thought, also given the content I'd advise you mark this as suitable for 18+
