Red streams down the walls as she cries her tears.
Hating herself for giving in to all of her fears.
She cowers in the dark and awaits her fate.
Praying for a hero, but help comes much too late.
And the world claims another one into the ground.
Just another face you'll no longer see around.
Will you notice that she's gone, or will her memory fade away?
It doesn't really matter, it's just another day.
He sticks the needle in his veins, and welcomes the numb.
He doesn't fight the addiction he knows he won't overcome.
A little too much for his system to handle, and he is gone for good.
No one notices that he is silent, he never thought they would.
And the world claims another one into the ground.
Just another face you'll no longer see around.
Will you notice that he's gone, or will his memory fade away?
It doesn't really matter, it's just another day.
She slides the blade across her wrist and prays for the end.
She doesn't flinch from the slice, the pain is her only friend.
She lays her head back to welcome her release.
No one is there to mourn her as she finally rests in peace.
And the world claims another one into the ground.
Just another face you'll no longer see around.
Will you notice that she's gone, or will her memory fade away?
It doesn't really matter, it's just another day.
Open your eyes and pay attention to what's going on.
We all should take a moment for those that are gone.
Senseless death, pain unbound, this is reality.
This is not how it has to be...
Stop the world from claiming another one into the ground.
They are not just faces you see around.
Notice the people next to you, don't shut them away.
It really does matter, help them find a way.
Make it matter, don't let them fade away...

Xalia,
Ahhh, umm, humph! I don't even know where to start with all the thoughts that just ran through my head as I read this - twice to be exact!

This part? Obviously I didn't get this far ..... but I've been so close too many times to count through the years.

And this part ......when I'm not deep in my own dark hole .... this is what I do. I'm a softie who wants to help everyone else. I've had family who thought they were alone & were successful ..... I don't want to have someone I know & care about to feel alone ..... it's a lonely feeling when you don't think you have someone to talk to.
I'm writing way to much here ...... I could keep going & going (like the Energizer bunny! lol) ...... it's a sensitive subject for me since it's my life up until now ..............
I'll just end this by saying WOW & thank you for posting this Xalia

Lem, aka Energizer Bunny,
Thank you for your reply hun.
I am sorry to hear that you have been close to edge more than once... I am glad you are not there now. I too have been there, but have pulled myself from the brink and realized there is too much to live for to die that way.
Thank you for your comments, they really are appreciated.
Take care hun, and have a great night.
Hugs,

hun your writing is very melodic.. I totally agree with you there is way too much to live for. As a community we should open our eyes and take care of those around us.. so often we are oblivous to the plights of others when often enough a kind word or helping hand is all it takes to make someone realize they are loved and needed. This hit so close to home thank-you for sharing your writing talent with us.
keep writing and best of luck to you...

Choas,
Thank you.
I agree, the simplest form of kindness, even just smiling at someone could turn their life around...
Now if only we could get the rest of the world to work on it, lol, that would be great.
Thanks for your comments hun, take care.
Hugs,

X,
Hmm, just wandering around the boards & stumbled on this again .... and felt compelled to respond ... again!
Just the other day at work a guy told me how he was going to miss a gal that was quitting. He didn't go into details, but apparently he's been going thru a lot of crap the last several months & these past couple months coming into the store seeing this gal & me give him a hello and a smile has helped him through.
It's one thing I forget about that can be such a plus working in a convienence store seeing the public each day ..... you never know who's day you might brighten by saying hi or just smiling at them. And for all you know, you could actually save a life by that small action. Sounds far fetched to some, but speaking from personal experience .... a nice clerk has helped me through the roughest of days.
Again, I ramble some more! thank you so much for posting this X!
((((X))))
