Suicide Is Bravery Poem by Ryan Frenrey

Suicide Is Bravery

Rating: 5.0


Imagine standing at the edge
No more reasons of anything in life to pledge
Looking down as the wind bleeds your eyes dry
When you fall you have seconds to say goodbye to the sky
Adrenaline causes the mind an instant rush
Anticipating freedom until you become crushed

Now a coward alive would say this man was weak
Yet this man in life couldn't imagine thinking deep
Instead of jumping for problems, you take a jump for power
I'll live more in 10 seconds than you do in a million hours
So as your standing at the edge giving life your last salute
Remember your brave, realize most wouldn't jump even with a parachute
Most would run as they saw death screaming 1000 feet down
A brave man would dig is own corpse into the ground

So as you read about another suicide statistic being
He did it because of strength, something your not seeing
When life screeches to an end and you want to be saved
This 'coward' was brave, this soul was brave

I have considered suicide before, but in my opinion suicide IS a cowardly act! ! Someone who is not brave enough or strong enough to face the challenge called life, is the one who commits suicide. When things get hard, you don't through your hands up and say, 'Thats it, I quit! ' The brave people are the ones who stick it out and try to fix the problems they are facing.

You need to wake up and understand that maybe other peoples lives aren’t so perfect.i used to think the same way but you need to wake up and realize that I’m numb. Completely numb. Maybe some people see no point, there lives are so bad. Don’t go judging until you WAKE THE UP
