I thought of suicide very often as a teenager. I never acted upon it. I believe that I had an angel watching over me throughout my teenage years. Someone must have been praying for me for I am happy and obviously not suicidal now. Publishing this gives me a closure on my past.

Silenced, broken, chained
Held back from being seen
Precautionary boundaries all around
To keep the feuding demons contained
Hope, love, hatred, jealousy
It’s all there
Trying to break free from the bars
Of its surrounding enclosure
An unbreakable lock holds the gates
The only fit is the key of death
In which the spirit can speak
Screaming in a dark hallway
A cry without sound
Like an unborn baby with pain
And a want to feel nourishment
But like it, remains without an answer
Make a mind go mad
Without the heart
The emotions are at a standstill
Like a roller coaster ride
And on the way down
At the climax of thrill…
It pauses… slinging you forward
Ringing up your insanity
Trying to think of what’s going on
Guarded by dark angels
Unable to break through
The unimaginable hissing of torture
As it lashes onto your back without halt
The only way to break free
Is to set the spirit free
The key of death is the one way exit
To another place not inhabited by your mind
