Suicide

Throughout middle school, I had a really good friend. Let's call her Anne. She had her ups and her downs just like everybody else. But as we grew older, the downs outweighed the ups. I remember getting sick of her being so depressed all the time. The only way I could show her that her depression was impacting us, her friends, was to write a poem to her, and show it to her.

I wrote this in my Geometry class in 10th grade.

April 11, 2005:


Why are you doing this to us?
Or better yet, yourself.
If you were to kill yourself,
I couldn't live with myself.

Knowing I could've done something
To prevent your suicide.
Something other than
Standing on the sidelines.

Yes, you have depression.
We all do.
Been there, done that,
What else is new?

Hi im Cassie.
Im sorry to say but im sure she didnt mean to make you and your friends hurt but did you think maybe shes hurting just to much and at that time she couldnt hide her depression just because others would rather her keep that to herself.
Not everyone can hide their depression only to make others around her happy.
Just think about it not everything you want can happen im sure she hid her depression for as long as she could.
And yes everyone has their ups and downs and you saying that everyone goes through a depression time does not mean anything maybe she couldnt handle the pain maybe she wasnt strong enough to keep it all together.
You just think what if you were in her persission and what would you feel if you got that poem given to you.
xXx. Im sorry just reading that made me mad because ive been through depression and my friends understood.
