This is a letter I wrote to 'suicide' one night when I was sitting there with the razors surrounding me, along with scattered pills and instruments of death. It obviously worked, so here it is.

SUICIDE,
I hate how they speak about you.
Some hate you, and others are desperate for you.
They talk as if you give people a choice.
They don't realize how sweet
and captivating you are.
They've naver taken the time to get to know you,
to understand you.
To comprehend how wonderful and mystifying you are.
To untwist the interworkings of your power
and marvel at your strength.
They've never been caught in your mighty grip.
They've never looked you in the face
and became paralyzed by the blank,
yet intense stare of your eyes.
Your eyes have never shone upon their flesh
and burned into their souls,
leaving a mark that will never vanish, nor fade.
They just don't know you the way I do.
But sadly, you may no longer be a part of my life.
There's somebody else now, and they love me
as much as I love them.
You've always been there for me when I was down.
I could always lean on you, and know you'd be there.
That you would never leave me.
But I have somebody else to lean on, now.
He'll never leave me either.
Thank you for being there,
but I simply don't have room for you in my life anymore, dear friend.
I just can't let you stay, I can't let you live inside of me.
I need to do this for myself, so here it is.
May we never meet again.

Never give your heart away, it will always come back broken.

You go girl. Get up and run this race of life to the very end. Accepting the bruises and the strains, the heartache and the pains.
And run victorious through the last tape singing I did it without dropping out.
Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,

Great work!  I've never seen a battle so personal with an enemy so powerful.  It seems that you did a great job!  Great kill on your enemy, Lil One!
