I'm Lost

I feel like I'm dying
looking all around me
all I see is destruction and death.
I want to die,
I get a knife
I put it to my skin
all I want to do is see I can feel.
I look up and...
your there.
I see if I can tell what your thinking,
all I can see is concern and sadness.
I put down the knife, and run into your arms to cry.
I say "I'm lost," that's all I can say.
You say, "Your safe now. I can help you. All you have to do is ask."
I don't know what to do, I'm scared and hurt but I can feel your love."
    WHAT DO I DO?

I am a nineteen year old female with two children, a boy and a girl. It wasn't easy, can you imagine having two children at my age with no matric. I know I'm intelligent, in fact, a genius, but my actions made me feel like an idiot . No job, no qualifications, no nothing. I ended up blaming my loved ones for all my failures, arguing with them at every given chance. But because of my faith, the love and the wisdom that God blessed me with, I was able to move on, to make the best out of my situation and let God lead the way. Today I am happy to say that I am happy, no
suicidal thoughts, no depression, no insecurities. God's love is comforting, it is warm, genuine and eternal. God answered my prayers and solved all my difficulties.

I feel for this story. I mean there is a time in our lives that we feel lost and all torn apart. I felt that way about my ex boyfriend. I could swear I could love him forever and then all of a sudden his heart got cold and he broke up with me without even saying why. My heart felt torn and shattered and often I cried myself to sleep. The truth is you know when love is going to end but you try so hard not to believe it. Now we don't talk but I wish we could and be the way it used to be. He moved on but sadly I didn't. I had no idea what I did all I know is that it hurt me a lot. I know at times we can feel no hope or believing in yourself can be the hardest thing to do but I promise you things will get better. and killing yourself is never the answer. Now I found someone who makes me feel beautiful inside and out. everything happens for a reason!
