Last Option

Last Option

A Poem by Obscured by the Shadows

Sometimes it seems like an excellent option, 

other times not so much. 

It would only take a small moment, 

but it seems there is always a catch. 

Would it hurt too much? 

An after thought. 

Would it be worth it? 

Most like to think so. 

It's a tempting thought, 

but in all honesty I don't want to. 

All my problems would be over,

but so would so much more. 

What would you choose?

Headshot from a shotgun. So my head gets torn to pieces. I know all the don't do it crap.
It's an everyday feeling to me. Every morning I wake up, look in tha mirror, and see the b*****d, who tried to kill me before. And then I remember the hells, that I always wanted to share.. But I don't, because suicide rate would skyrocket... But I don't do it...I don't even cut, or starve myself anymore...No. I chose suffering, over the wise choice, of leaving it all, for eternity. Why? because I'm stupid, and because I got used to living with the monster.
"I know it. In the bunkers, all alone, you'll realise, that as the last survivor..Be afraid of yourself alone."
a translation, of a songs part.
Yes, it solves all your problems, because you will not exist anymore, thus the problems will not bother you anymore. The truth is, when you die, it will be nothin but a sudden film cut, and the slow process of your body becoming dust.
I've tasted it. Talkin from what I've seen already.
The choice is yours.

A choice I am not willing to make currently, and I am glad you aren't either.

You know, it is craft when you beautifully portray such a dark subject. Damn I had to reread it twice to ensure I was getting the gist, because i ended up interpreting two ways. Although the second one(suicide) is what I think you were aiming to portray here. Nicely done ^^( although nothing nice about suicide, especially when it becomes a failed attempt)

Thank you for taking the time to thoroughly read my writing, it means a lot.
I know I have been there in that dark place and thought the same. It's easy to take the path out and end all our problems... what's always helped is thinking how selfish it is to get rid of my problems but be accountable for the problems I'd cause to all those that are close to me. There's always another way my friend no matter how s****y life feels at times.

Always....
The emotions have been portrayed nicely through the questions.
And I hope everything is all right.

Everything is fine, thought it seems everyone thinks otherwise.
I had these exact feelings when i was in the world of depression....I think i can relate to most of the feelings of your writings....I love simplicity and honesty in writing and both of them can be found in your poems.....Full ratings frnd....
