"Rising from Darkness: A Poem on the Prevention of Suicidal Thoughts"
When darkness falls, and hope seems lost And suicidal thoughts creep in at any cost Remember, there is a way out of the pain Prevention is key, and help is there to gain. Talk to someone, a friend or therapist Express your feelings, let them assist They'll listen and help guide you through To a brighter path, and a life anew. Take time for self-care, and do what you love Find joy and peace, like a hand in a glove Explore your passions, and new things too And know that life can be beautiful, for you. Surround yourself with supportive friends Who lift you up, and help make amends And when the clouds gather, and darkness falls Know that you're not alone, you can make the calls. Prevention of suicidal thoughts is a call to action To care for oneself, with love and compassion It takes courage and strength to reach out But the reward is a life, that's full and without doubt.
