I remember a time <br />when I would take a knife <br />to end my life <br />but that was back then <br />when I thought no one cared <br />I guess I was scared <br />but I remember the talk <br />as I starred into their eyes <br />and all I heard were cries <br />how could I think that they wouldn't hurt <br />I guess I was just thinking of me <br />and how I wanted to be free <br />away from the world <br />but I changed my way <br />it's all I have to say <br />in which I hope you do the same <br />cause more will grieve <br />and some will feel deceive <br />all because you took your life <br />you took their light <br />and now it's done, <br />and nothing will ever shine so bright.<br /><br />Rivers O'Donahue<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-let-it-take-you-too/
