That I make everything right
You’ve done well neglecting me,
So now it’s me you’ll never have to see
I’m going to do it tonight
It’s tonight I’ll give up the fight

After years of being shunned
My hand has finally found the gun
At midnight, I’ll walk to our pond,
I’ll pull the trigger on my magic wand
I’ll shoot myself in my head
And fall back into the grass bed

It is tonight that my fingers
On the handle will linger,
They’ll grip the handle tightly,
Pointer will move to the trigger slightly
I’ll flip the safety switch
So I can safely fall into the ditch

I’ll do it tonight at midnight
This is the night I’ll give up the fight
The night I make everything right
The gun is now my only light
It’s the only light in sight
Tonight will be the night

Tonight

Tonight is the night

You’ve done well neglecting me,

I’m going to do it tonight
It’s tonight I’ll give up the fight

My hand has finally found the gun
At midnight, I’ll walk to our pond,

Before you consider that move away from the person that is hurting you. If you kill your self that person wins. DON"T LET THAT HAPPEN. Please go talk it out with someone who you are close to.

I agree with Archie, noone is worth that fate. There is someone out there that is capable of giving you everything you want and need, you just have to open your eyes to see them.

This is very sad which was no doubt the intention, but i got to visit your profile.

Seems to me you have much to live for with all your interests, education etc, so go for the life option. make a mark in the only world of which we have knowledge.

P.S I was going to give this a 'five' score but I thought this might encourage you to carry out the content. So I gave it 'four' instead. lol

Don't give in to the jerks who make you feel the ways you do. I almost killed myself but then I realized I don't need anyone to make it through MY life. Now I'm standing on my own two feet without them.

Very dark and vivid. I would like to pull the trigger myself. I know the feeling of never getting anything right and the only possilbe way to do that is just making yourself disappear for good. Thanks for the write.
