Set Free
by Tina Lovergine
My World is spinning
not sure which way to turn
not sure what to do
the gun lays there
so still and quiet
sitting here thinking
how life has done me wrong
wondering why
I hate life so much
will I pull that trigger
I too will leave this world
leave this world of hate
there is nothing left here for me

slowly
I pick the gun up
I feel my hand shaking
I hear my heart beating
I point the gun
towards my chest
for people will now know
a true broken heart
when you were taken from me
my world was flip turned upside down
I think everyday
there had to have been something I could say
replaying our last conversation
over and over in my mind

have I committed a crime
could I have done something
these are questions that will go unanswered
your life has ended
now it's my turn

with a knock at the door
so many things running through my mind
my fingers shaking
as the door opens
the trigger is pulled
laying on the floor
with your eyes above me
I see the wings
now my heart
truly has been
"Set Free"

Julie A close friend completed suicide after I broke off the relationship. I was the last person he spoke with. I felt this way at one time. Time heals - though a scar remains.
Anna This Poem was really " deep " stuff, it brought tears to my eyes. I'm struggling with depression, anger, and suicidal feeling. Yes , I have thought about ending it but then i think how my loved ones would feel. HUGS TO YA'LL. To all you that are considering suicide, don't do it your better than that you made it this far why give up now?.
Victoria i feel this way sometimes but,i think about it and it's just not worth it. your work is amazing,and keep up the good work.
Shelley I read this poem and was saddened, I know that this world is a terrible place at times, but suicide is not the answer.
Claudia i know exactly how u feel. i've always felt alone and unsure of so many things, but suicide isnt the answer. theres so many things out there to live for, to learn and experience. dont give up!
Kayla I love this pome, I really feel this way inside!
laurs In this poem everything you have said is so real to me. when i read it everything was so unbelievably the same as how i feel think and act. my dad died 7years ago when i was 10 . He got shot. And since that day i have been so down and now i have depression its really hard.
girl your poem has really touched me. my fiancee of three years committed suicide a month ago. its been extremely hard for me to go on. if it was not for the people who care for me, and are helping me through this, i would not be here now.
Laura This poem reminds me of my friend Matt. I know how you feel in this poem. It is really Kicks
Ms.B I'm scared too. I hate how there are so many people who feel this way but none of us no what to do. And the worst thing is that at night ultimately I will always have to be with myself and no one in the end can help no matter how much I need it and how much they want to help. I hope that you continue to write because you are talented
