<sub>Suicidal dream world, so demanding, you’re commanding
The colour scheme to match your despondency and blood,
It doesn’t have to be this way. Hangers don’t bleed anyway.

Overheads lie, don’t be blinded by false claims.
Utterly corrupted by promises of beautiful despair
The stunning imagery capturing one last breath.

The light swears you should be thankful that it’s here
“How dare you race to escape my enchanting glare?

Cut yourself free and hit the ground running.
(I hope you throw away the rope and don’t look back)

Not your day to die.

No heads or tails with reality.
When the game is truth don’t push for a dare.

You can’t retake this moment.
No do over.</sub>

Don’t make it end
This way.

I apologize for the darkness of this piece. It was emotional to write but the ‘Sunshine’ always offered me hope. I know suicide is a touchy issue and it’s something many people deal with, it’s played on my mind from time to time, this piece is not encouraging suicide and if you’re feeling that bad please ask for help from someone you trust. However I wanted this to be a sort of warning for people how final the end is and that there are other ways out of their depression other then self harm. Too often I see suicide and self hate glamorized on deviant art and called beautiful. In my own little way I hope this helps.

Who do you (and I) have to thank for this piece?

Firstly many thanks to the artist chosen for the =VisualLit competition, the original can be found at this [link] . He has a wonderful gallery I hope you give him a glance.

Secondly to the group on d.a. and there Challenge de la Four More information can be found at this [link]

Thirdly the musical artist Tim Foley, and his song Nobodys Listening helped me pull this together and his song Out of His Misery helped me brain storm and get started. You can find both songs and more at the Podsafe Music Network ([link] )
Thank you x
