Alexie Sherman said it best when he wrote, "this is a poem for all those who jumped off the golden gate bridge/ this is a poem for all those who jumped off the golden gate bridge and changed their minds halfway down/ this is a poem for all who have jumped off the golden gate bridge because all have changed their minds halfway down./ I do not believe that anyone wants to kill themselves for longer than the two seconds it takes to do it." I paraphrase of course. My brother killed himself. I was a year older. That was 8 years ago. There is not a day I don't think on him. And how I looked up to him. He didn't know that. Or he ignored it. No matter. Same ending. Just think about it is all I'm saying.  |

My dear...I promise you will love again, and you'll think this person is the biggest jerk who ever lived and wonder why you ever cared for him. You just hang in there and don't you act out the words of this poem. I hope and pray you were only working through your pain. It does help to write..but suicide is never he answer.  |

You are too good of a person to be put through anything like this, Lia. He doesn't deserve a person like you.  |

Oh the pain...you feel like it will never go away. And there is nothing more on the planet that you wish for than to get rid of it now. I know that this may sound trivial but no pain, no gain. It is a crappy quote used by body builders but I think it would be helpful for you to use it as a mind builder. Someday, you will get over the pain and wonder why the heck you liked the person in the first place, but you will have learned from the situation. Eventually, you will find someone (or many) that will deserve you.  |

Lia, no matter what you might be thinking now, suicide is not an out. For the pain you might release goes onto others. Look to your friends to help you. I, myself, was at this point not to long ago, and a great friend strolled into my life and helped me see that there are more caring people in this world. Your friends are the best cure for many things, they will listen and not judge, they will look upon you and help you walk through the pain, and they will try to bring that smile back to you. For no matter the pain you feel now, it will subside and start to go away. You have taken the first step of releasing it into your words, now let your friends help you walk through it to help your heart heal. Your mind may tell you that no one is there for you, but down deep, buried under the emotions of anger and mistrust, you will find the trust you have in your friends.  |
