Dearly beloveds we are gathered here today to commit this woman into the second hospital of her day.
This is not to be taken lightly
As the scars on her arms and legs will never fade
And the things she has witnessed will never be erased.
We've come together to say:
You cannot kill yourself
We would miss you
We love you
Think of your family
Your friends
And not of yourself,
What you want and think is best.
Who may control yourself and your life
Certainly not you, child.
How could you possibly know whats best
You can't
You're too young
You're ill.
Do you know
6% of adults in the United States
Take these prescriptions
From side effects to stigma
Endless new pills to serotonin syndrome
In sickness and in mental health
Until death
Do we part
