Time of death

Just some poem born in the middle of the night

This was my chance to prove I'm brave.
No more will I be just a nuisance to them.
Soon I will descend into my grave
and become brighter than any gem.
I am the star of this show,
I want them to yell my name.
The clock is ticking painfully slow.
Where are the lights? Where is the fame?

It looks like they never cared.

This is sad because in some cases (not all) suicide is just a cry for attention. To know 'they care'.
Attention which will not be experienced after death... So it's all for naught. Yet still death is alluring.
This seems to be a recurring theme for you.

Yes, it is a theme I like to write about. Not because I have this kind of feeling, but because I think it's a huge problem in our society today. Many teenagers/young adults glorify mental illnesses, self-harm and suicide, which is so wrong. I think that the true pain behind such things is forgotten and therefore peoole don't take these kind of things seriously anymore.

So much truth with so little words.

Very deep. It is very nice. This has a very interesting idea to it.
