Last Thing We Need Poem by Jon M. Nelson

Some people come into our lives,
Not knowing where they belong.
They may ask for our help because,
They just may not be strong.

We may try to do all that we can,
But in the end it wasn't enough.
Our helping hands may fall short,
Because it was just too much.

Some people just may think that,
There is absolutely no way out.
They will try to end it all because,
Their life is just so full of doubt.

They think the world's against them,
And that there may be no chance.
They keep falling and giving up,
They aren't willing to take a stance.

We must stand strong and be willing,
To stand for them at their side.
For the last thing that we need
Is to lose someone else to suicide.
