I'm a human, not a headline.

Taunts and teasing,
Curses and swears.
It's only 8.30,
My life is hell.
A small town boy,
I grew up religious.
With glasses on,
Never short of a smile.
High achiever,
Quiet in class.
Little do they know,
Today is my last.

The clock runs slow,
My fate runs short.
Destiny awaits me,
No turning back.
I update my Facebook.
"Goodbye, no turning back"
I hurry along,
To the bridge after dark.
To take my own life,
No misery at all.

A spot in time,
A blur in the back.
With nothing to lose,
All is lost.
A human he was,
A headline he is.
An end of a life,
Suicide.
