That Night

It was a dark cold night
as I sat in the bright moon light.
my mind racing again,
as I hold in my hand that powerful 410.
Pressed hard against my stomach,
my finger on the trigger,
the suicide thoughts couldn't get any bigger.

Sitting here wondering why
I am wanting so much to die.
Before I knew it
there was a loud boom,
everything went black
 then a sudden pain in my back.
Now I know I will be going soon.

I pull myself up
and push myself to walk
try to call for someone to come
but I can barely talk.

I fall to the floor slowly fading out,
not knowing whats going on
I am going now without a doubt.

I open my eyes, I can see the outside of me.
Everyones hands working
doing everything they can do,
but my lips turn blue.

I can't breath
I'm going down
piercing to my ears
that loud siren sound.

A bump here
A bump there
I have evryone in a scare.
I can't think,
I can barely see
the large helicopter blades above me.

Again everything goes black, what is going on?
Several hours later
I come out from under.

I come to realize
I am not gone
I am still here
there I was wiping a tear.
I didn't have to say goodbye,
because I did not die.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
