a poem i wrote when a friend attempted suicide.
stephen tried to kill himself,
tried to end his life,
he never should have done it
regardless of his strife
he tried suicide
twenty valiums didnt do it,
when he tried the night before
last night it was lithium,
he swallowed a whole jar
he tried suicide
he ran to CVS
because he could never stand suspense
got himself some ipecak
and called an ambulance
he tried suicide
i saw him at the hospital,
he looked like he was dead
but he wasnt succesfull,
he should've put a gun to his head
he tried suicide
so in the end stephen failed,
the will to live prevailed,
but i know that deep inside,
what he wanted was suicide
he never had his way,
he still doesnt today
to be unsatisfied and irate,
was his unfortunate fate
so he tried suicide

..and then i cried.
