To Whom It May Concern

November 27, 2013

I wish I could just take my last breath
And leave this world behind in death
But my friends and family love me too much
All of their lives I seem to have touched
But I hate who I've been
Completely lost in sin
I want to leave the world behind
Peace at last I want to find
I love the people in my life
Except for me and all my strife
How can you run away
When people beg you to stay
Where can I run from me
How can I escape my body
Where can I run to escape my soul
All of my sorrow and filth it holds

I've been having thoughts of suicide. I love my life, but I hate myself.

&quot;so do it. Decide. Is this the person you want to be? Is this the life you want to live? Is this the best you can be?&quot;<br /> &quot;I survived the fire because the fire within me burns brighter than the one around me&quot;

Dear annyomus, I love this poem, but hate that it's how you feel. I feel angry at the world as isee there are no comments on this. I don't know how long its been since you have posted this, but i Hope you decided to stay. You are cared for and loved. I don't know you, but I care, and I understand! I have attempted three times, and I promise, things will get better! it may not seem like it but it will. You are so strong, and I am so proud you had the strength to write how you feel. This poem is so good, and by the way- this Concerns me and everyone. Stay strong, Inspiringyou2.stay
