Hush little baby,
Don’t you cry.
Don’t cut your arms,
Don’t say goodbye.

Put down that razor,
Put down that light.
It may be hard,
But you’ll win this fight.

We’ll be right here,
Through thick and thin.
Have no fear,
Have the strength from within.

Please, we’re begging you, stay with us.
We all love you, just don’t give up.

Favorite Quote:
"so do it. Decide. Is this the person you want to be? Is this the life you want to live? Is this the best you can be?"
"I survived the fire because the fire within me burns brighter than the one around me"

This poem is very powerful and the message underlying it is very strong. It nearly brought tears to my eyes. As someone who deals with self harm and depression, I can honestly say that this is a very moving poem. My favorite line is" put down that light" Keep writing!!!!!!!
