April 24th, 2021 The day that my life weighed over three tons I did a little work and got a little drunk And by 10PM, I was way past done Had a knife in my hand and the blade on my wrist A few nights before, I had wrote that final list Slid the blade down and painted stripes on my arms Sipped on a pill bottle, I wasn't doing any harm I kept drinking my pills as a friend called concerned The one person I didn't wanna burn But, instead, I lit the match And told him all my plans He didn't call the cops, he's a really good man But I was ready to lose him, I sent him every page Confessed that I loved him I know he doesn't feel the same He kept telling me to stop and I just said "leave me alone" He got tired of my shit and he hung up the phone I kept taking more pills and I just wanted sleep And as I drifted off, I remembered I forgot to eat The Chinese that I ordered, it's from my favorite place But it sits on the bed as I sink into this state My mind told me "throw them up You might have a life to live" But I shut myself down and I was ready, this is it I woke up an hour later and I could barely move Had fifty pills in my system, I was in a different groove I got up and fell down, my limbs didn't work But, I kept trying and I saw the devil smirk I kept falling on my face and my hands still ache There's a throbbing in my head And an overwhelming self hate Why didn't I succeed? Will I walk again? Should I call my mom? Is this all just in my head? My fingers are slipping as I press on the screen As my hands shake back and forth Withdrawals will be so mean My mom tried to help me walk But I keep tripping on the floor If I called 911, I wouldn't make it out the door But I still made the call not caring if I died But I was starting to get worried To myself I told a lie Two EMT's and two cops Helped me up the wooden stairs They drove me in an ambulance I felt like I was floating I thought I would die there I was still kind of hoping They couldn't pump my stomach Had an IV in my hand And I said "let God decide and see where they stand" April 27th, 2:30PM I'm in the hospital I really thought that was the end I have all these pieces All these broken pieces That I don't know how to fix Who would have known That night would have come to this And I'm expecting them to mend Things are wrapping up now It's time for another group With a new found strength I think I can recoup
