Live for me
Live for me
We often forget the lives we touch,
Sometimes feel we aren't enough,
Don't forget what you leave behind,
Even when you lose your mind, our loved ones care even when we can't see,
Through the sorrow we are meant to be,
Be yourself and stand up tall,
Because of the pain if you decide to fall,
We do not live for selfish means,
Make it through and live for me,
Nothing but love we should give and take,
One more day I hope you wake,
So lay down that blade and walk away,
Because your loved ones hope you stay.
About this poem
Recently saw the effects of suicide and was struck by my muse. Sometimes we get so caught up in our own demons and feel alone that we don't realize the pain we leave.
