Other Plans

Today I could not take no more,
The world was crashing in,
Pain bursting deep inside,
Now my life would have to end.

So many will be hurt, I know,
How can they understand,
When life is overwhelming,
And the world with it's demands.

In many ways I showed them,
The sorrow in my heart,
Ignoring all the signs I left,
From the very start.

I'm sorry for my loved one's,
Even sorry for myself,
But now it has to end,
The hurt that I have felt.

I pray God will forgive me,
And take me in His arms,
Freeing all the demons,
Causing so much harm.

Opening my eyes, I could see,
I did not die today,
God had other plans,
Leaving me to stay.

Another chance to live again,
My loved one's by my side,
My life is so worthwhile,
So many tears to cry.

When I get so depressed,
I shall think about this time,
And all the love shown me,
I know I'll be just fine.
