A Flight from Suicide's Grip

A Song of Survival

Depressed Man

In the darkest depths of a distressed mind,

A tale of sadness, so hard to unwind.

A story of pain, of sorrow untold,

Of a soul in disaster, feeling so cold.

__________________________________________________

In a world of darkness, where hope seemed lost,

A uncertain heart paid an immeasurable cost.

It yearned for peace, for a glimmer of light,

But the burden it carried was an endless fight.

__________________________________________________

Through tear-stained nights and endless cries,

The soul questioned why it had to survive.

It looked for reasons, for meaning, for grace,

But all it obtained was an empty space.

__________________________________________________

Loneliness whispered, "There's no escape,

No one to understand your heartache."

The world moved on, blind to the pain,

As the soul sought safety from the pouring rain.

__________________________________________________

But in this darkness, a friend did appear,

A beacon of hope, removing the fear.

With open arms, they offered their hand,

A lifeline extended on life's shifting sand.

__________________________________________________

They said, "You're not alone in this fight,

Together, we'll overcome the darkest night.

Your burdens are heavy, I won't deny,

But we'll face them together, you and I."

__________________________________________________

The soul, once tired, began to see,

A spark of hope, a chance to be free.

Through shared tears and stories untold,

Their bond grew stronger, their hearts consoled.

__________________________________________________

They spoke of struggles, of battles won,

Of the courage to face each rising sun.

And as time went by, the soul did heal,

As love and compassion began to reveal.

__________________________________________________

The world outside, it changed its tone,

Accepting the soul that had felt alone.

For it learned that in the depths of despair,

There's still a chance for love to repair.

__________________________________________________

So let this be a lesson to us all,

To reach out and notice those who may fall.

For in the darkness, a heart can mend,

When we stand together, hand in hand.

__________________________________________________

Suicide, an evil we must defy,

With love, compassion, and tears that dry.

In unity, we'll change the world's view,

And show that there's hope, forever anew.
