Stop!
Put the blade down
Yes, you
Don't you think it's time for something new?
A new attitude, a new way of dealing with
The things they put you through
A new way to survive
A new way to pull you through
I know
You may not see it now
But if you hold on
You'll see
It always gets better somehow
So throw your self-destructive tool
Away and join the fight
We'll show those in pain
That there's always a light
And I know you think that no one's there
And I know you think that no one cares
But the things they said, they're not true
They're only trying to hurt you
If you go through with this
It'll only get worse
So just throw it away
So just throw the guilt away
All the anger, all the pain
All the fear and all the shame
Just throw it all away
On the edge
There's a girl stood looking down
And she's so far up
She can see the whole town
Little did she know
The very next day
They'd take back all the things they say
But now she'll never find out
Wait it out
Just wait and see
It will get better for both you and me
When the time comes, you'll smile again
It's not an 'if', it's always a 'when'
Please, just wait and see
And I know you think that no one's there
And I know you think that no one cares
But the things they said, they're not true
They're only trying to hurt you
If you go through with this
It'll only get worse
So just throw it away
So just throw the guilt away
All the anger, all the pain
All the fear and all the shame
Just throw it all away

These Tears Would Come:
These Tears Would Come:
If my tears could tell a story of two -
What would they have to say about you?
Of a boy who spent his whole life seeking
And a girl who found it in the arms of another…
Would they tell us of laughter? Beneath a starlit sky,
Or of harsh words exchanged on bitter nights.
Would they speak of moments, so beautifully captured;
To be enjoyed in memory, like a perfect wine.
Or perhaps they would tell us of an untampered truth:
Of the lonely nights spent longing, for an Eden lost.
Captivated, habituated, to this lonely habit of you;
For her alone, these tears would come.

Lie to Me
There are those who stare into the water's edge.
Gleaming eyes fixed upon their reflections.
I am beautiful! they say to themselves,
And all of you must accept that as true!
To say otherwise would be a social suicide.
Their friends will defend them to the bitterest end.
In a circle of illusions cast by the group,
You are forced to accept this person as 'pretty'.
Sorry...
To me you are not beautiful, you are simply lazy.
You have done nothing for yourself,
And now you wish me to accept you?
Sorry...
But I must tell you the truth.
And though that truth may wound you,
I believe it is for the best:
Because girl, dayum! You just lo

Some Words Hold Hearts
There are some words
Many words ,in fact,
That aren't meant to be read
By an audience.
That aren't meant to be condemned
And criticized
For their validity and originality.
There are some words
Who's only point is to exist.
To give existence
To someone.
To show someone their pain is real
That its important.
Their anger is real
That its just.
Their love is real
That's its true.
Their hearts are real
That they 're whole...
Even if no one else sees them that way
Even if no else knows them that way
Even if no one understands
Or reads those words.
Those words hold our hearts
And that's all their meant to do.

On the edge
There's a girl stood looking down
And she's so far up
She can see the whole town
I love this imagery. Very very very powerful. I like that it can be taken multiple ways. As potential suicide but also someone seeing the big picture as well as giving perspective. She is so small compared to the whole town. Love these lines. Love this poem. Very powerful. Full of hope and help.
