You fall, you rise, you make mistakes, you live and learn. You're human, not perfect. You've been hurt but, you're alive - to breathe to think, to enjoy, and chase the things you love. Sometimes, there is sadness in our journey but, there is also lots of joy. We must keep putting one foot in front of the other even when we hurt. For we will never know what is waiting for us around the bend


I am not the only one
There are many like me
People who are too afraid to do anything
People who can’t tell anyone what’s going on
Because their abusers threaten them
They fear that one word will equal another beating
Those people have no voice
We are the voiceless victims that nobody pays attention to
That nobody cares to listen to
We scream for you to hear us
But you don’t listen
We murder ourselves to get away
But that can be avoided if people just listened
And in the end are we really our killer
Or is it the people who push us
Push us so far that we have nowhere to go
So far that we have no one we can talk to
So far that we take our own life because of you
Because you are so insecure about your own life
So you take it out on us
But you don’t realize how much it hurts
How far one word
One hit
Can push someone
You are the real killers
The real murders
You are the reason we can’t stand to live anymore
So next time you make a comment
Or raise a hand
Or judge someone
Remember that you will be who is blamed
You will be the one with blood on your hands
You are the murder not us you
We might be the one doing it
But you are the cause
Stand up
Don’t be the reason someone ends their life
Don’t be our murder
Stand up for the voiceless victims

This is for all the people who feel like suicide is the only answer. And for those who push people to their breaking point.
