@waterfrontdreamer or anyone else in that dark valley. Please read.

I know it's Happy Monday But the matter needs addressed And I don't mean to hurt anyone Or make them feel depressed. I was at that brink once The precipice of which many speak, I stared into that dark abyss The road to which is steep. Perhaps that's why it's so easy to get down And hard to get back up Hence why there, sadly, have been many Who never surfaced and got stuck. When looking into that abyss You search your deepest parts. Do I have the courage? Do I have the heart? I can tell you neither heart nor courage Make you move that knife, Pull that trigger, loop that noose That take away your life. I know there's folks out there Who aren't massive God fans And I won't preach, I'll only say That I was in his hand. While you stand there wondering if This is the way it ends You begin to see the hole you leave Which no-one can truly mend. You begin to see how wonderful Your existence really is Despite your bad choices Which your little life do mist, And after all of this occurs The clouds clear and you see There's hope in every shape and form In whatever form it will be. Tomorrow is a brighter place, Without Death there, there is light And you'll no longer fear Death's call But ONLY when the time is right. I know this all sounds so cliché But it really is the truth. Life's so precious and marvellous. Don't believe me? I have proof. And when you look there's so many people To walk you from the plunge And back up that steep, difficult hill, United by one thing; Love. And though many, myself as one, Never tell a soul They feel that presence anyway Because it's there, untold. So don't make this decision It's not man's decision to make. You'll pull through, we'll see you do, Just leave all this business to Fate.
