Where Were You Poem by Destinee Sykes

Where Were You



People say they care when you cry
People say they don't want you to die
But where are they?
You say you care when i cry
You say it kills you when i say i want nothing more than to die
But where were you?
Where were you when i was on the edge
Where were you when all i could think of was the blade
Where were you when i had the gun to my head
Where were you when the alcohol was on my breath
When the cigarette was between my lips
You say you cared but where were you..

He is inside you, why do you look for Him outside. One can commit suicide any time but life once lost, diificult to state whether we shall get it again or not.
