Death calls for me
Life threatens me
So hard to live
Too easy to die
Wanna choose both
Can’t ever decide
Don’t want to face problems
Don’t want to see darkness
Which do I choose?
Death peace though dark
Life is bright but hard
The decision needs to be made
But all I want is freedom

There is always something more to live for...my friend committed suicide and I wish he realized just how many people loved cared and looked up to him no matter what your hardships you will always have someone that cares so please don't leave them behind

Your poems are always something I really really connect with, and this one even more so. I feel this way so much.

thx music lover and beautifulspirit. I guess it would be a suicide piece. It's just how i feel and all i really want is freedom whether it be living or dying. and it probaly is dying, becuz this world doesnt really have anyhting to offer.

I like how your poem begins---the first four lines made me pay attention. I liked it---you've compared and contrasted what life and death bring to a person. Is there a suicide theme to your piece?
