A Second Chance

oops
|
She had it all, being smart, popular and pretty
She was the apple of everyone's eye
But her happiness was only skin deep
For her smile was a lie
There was a sinking feeling
She couldn't understand and didn't know why
She had suicidal thoughts within
Which she could neither define nor deny
Perhaps they were caused by the breaking of her heart
When her beau left her in loneliness
Her world was falling apart
Although surrounded by friends she felt a certain emptiness
Dizzying emotions swirled endlessly in her mind
She was on the verge of insanity
Running out of time
What was left in humanity?
She felt better after swallowing some pills
Standing on a cliff, at the very edge
It was a battle of wills
To push herself off the ledge
Towards the abyss she swayed
She squeezed her eyes shut
Her decision was made
To end her fragile existence but
She felt a yank on her arm
Hauling her to safety
Pulling her away from harm
Jolting her back to reality
Tears streaming down her face
She looked up at her saviour
And lunged herself into her embrace
Whispering 'Thank you, mother'
