SUCIDE IS PEACEFUL, RIGHT?
<p><strong>He died and,  I envied him.</strong></p><p>It was Jay, laying flat.</p><p><br/></p><p>Not because I wanted to be buried, but because I was tired of breathing and still not alive.</p><p><br/></p><p>I looked at his coffin and whispered</p><p>"Lucky him" </p><p>Because while they cried for him, no one saw me drowning alive.</p><p> </p><p>What do we struggle for at the end of the day? It will be a shame if I let death take me without my consent, so I'll just end it here by myself.</p><p> </p><p>They say, have faith, things will fall in place soon, </p><p>But it seems faith doesn't even recognize me.</p><p>Oooou I get it now, I'm too dark to be seen, I'm not worthy to be beheld upon, I'm dirty. I get the point now.</p><p><br/></p><p>But then I remembered something.</p><p>He's not coming back.</p><p>Not to laugh again, not to grow, not to fulfill, not to even see the sunset.</p><p>My heart sank for my dear friend Jay.</p><p>Jay had always wanted to be a pediatrician ( Children Doctor).</p><p>He was so intelligent and full of life, little did I know that he was sleeping away in silence, covering his scares with smiles.</p><p><br/></p><p>What will happen to the future kids Jay would have given life to? What will happen to his dreams?.</p><p><br/></p><p>And me?? </p><p>I'm still here </p><p>Still breathing, even if it hurts.</p><p>Still waking up even if I don't want to.</p><p><br/></p><p>So Maybe he's not the lucky one, I AM.</p><p>Because while grieve sealed his story, </p><p>Hope is still writting mine.</p><p><br/></p><p>Dear reader</p><p>Life is worth living like mad.</p><p>Life is so beautiful and the world is not even ready for you yet! </p><p><br/></p><p>What if you wait a little more? </p><p>What if you had more patience, just like you had when you went to Mama Kay's spot to get food ,but she didn't attend to you first, because there were other people there before you came, and you still waited till it got to your turn, because you wouldn't stay hungry all day.</p><p><br/></p><p>But the thing is GOD doesn't do like Mama Kay.</p><p>He'll pick you out of the 99 waiting, only if you had a little more patience. </p><p><br/></p><p>"What if" you wait and watch all your "what if's" come to reality?</p><p><br/></p><p>But you'll never know</p><p>If you end it today 💡.</p><p>Stay for me please (th<span style='background-color: transparent; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'>is writer loves you).</span></p><p>Stay for your loved ones.</p><p><br/></p>
