Sorry it's so long, maybe you can help me edit it a litttle...


One chance to get it all right,
only one chance to win the fight. How in the world
could a person like me do something like that?
I'm just a little person compared to the rest.
I'm just a little girl, I can't pass the test.


A finger on the trigger I try to stop myself, yelling in the back of my head
"Just do it! kill yourself!"
I dont find it easy to let it all go,
I'm just a little girl, I don't like to see my own blood flow. Still debating how to end it all,
I lie on my bed, away from it all. If someone cared they would have come. I've been up
here all day, with my only friend the gun.

I only have one chance; at life and at death.
Ha! I'm only thirteen years old,
I can't pass this test! I'm falling anyway, how could death be any different?
It couldn't be any worse than this hell I'm already living. Just like before,
no one would care. I'm all alone in this world, nothing to hide. Soon I'll be gone,
I'm sure no one will notice. There too busy drinking, they wont here the bang.

Or maybe something less messy, Just a simple hanging. Would that hurt less?
would I be dead? Soon enough I'm sure
they would find me...If they noticed I was gone. No! I only have one chance,
I can't live another year. I only have one chance, to end or live through it all.
Now is that chance, just leave it all behind, I can do this; I can die.

Twenty munites later I still sit on my bed,
trying to find more reasons not to just give in. "Just do it. You know they don't
really love you; You said it yourself, you did! I heard you!"
This is my mind, speaking against my gut.
I still just sit there, my eye's shut. "NO!" I hear a scream from far away. I open my eyes and I'm finally awake.

Gasping for air I pull myself up,
the gun falling from my hand,
hit's the floor with a thunk. My best friend is there, looking down at me. Tears in here eyes, she's yelling at me. I should have
pulled it while I could. I only had one chance,
I gave it up. Thakns to my best friend I'm out of luck.

These are my thoughts from life long ago,
happy now that I didn't go.
She saved me from my own suicide, hugged me and claimed she also would have died.
Now I know that at least one person loves me with all there heart,
now I know how it feels to lost.

Only one chance is what you get,
don't say goodbye. It is something you will regret.

Okay, so I'm sitting here and crying.  Reading it over and over and over again.  This is my absolute favourite poem by you of all time.  I love it.  I don't know what you were thinking when you wrote it.  But I think it relates to me and you.  I don't know why I got this idea in my head, but awesome poem!

no you'r right 'TJ' ... haha it's funny calling you that. Who knows maybe it does relate to you and me, however the 'characters' could be in the revers way that it is writen. Or it could be of something entierly different! It all depends on what we choose to do in the end.
