Today in micropoetry, we have my poem on informing all you lovely people to realize how suicide is real and love is a healing entity. I've been in situations where I've aided people who even had a glimmer of reaching that dark place and I'm thankful to have been able to be there for them :) For now, here's "Take Care" - and yes, that is the suicide hotline listed in my poem!
=================================
Take care;
Let them know you’re there.
Say hi;
Smile and stay for awhile.
Let them know you’re there.
Say hi;
Smile and stay for awhile.
Nab their shoulder;
Tell them life won’t be much colder.
Listen for that call at 3 in the morning;
You better not be snoring,
Because their life may get gory.
Tell them life won’t be much colder.
Listen for that call at 3 in the morning;
You better not be snoring,
Because their life may get gory.
If they tell you they need help,
Yelp at them to call 1-800-273-8255
And not be ashamed
For feeling more fragile than a candy cane…
Yelp at them to call 1-800-273-8255
And not be ashamed
For feeling more fragile than a candy cane…
Shower them with encouragement and love,
As doves will free them from their pain
While we all enjoy this summer rain!
As doves will free them from their pain
While we all enjoy this summer rain!
