I'm sitting alone here in this cold and dark apartment

Everything around me is silent and peaceful

Only the distant sound of cars outside…

The water dripping from the bath faucet –

Interrupt the perfect serenity

Nothing here seems right but no-one cares

The world is running past me

But I'm left behind with my fears

I yearn to be recognized again, to be heard and understood

Yet nobody hears my silent cries of help

So I turn to the only think that helps me forget my misery

At first I'm anxious-

I hurriedly get my bag and retrieve the necessary items

The cool feel of the little bottle relaxes my tense nerves

At that moment I know that what I'm about to do is right

So I measure out the desired amount…

Strap the rubber band around my arm…

And forget all my worries as I enter heaven

This is how they find me-

Slumped over on my bathroom floor…

The needle still in my arm,

And a half empty bottle of dilaudid beside me

Some are shocked, others start to cry

But I have a smile on my face

For I have found my peace for all eternity
