10:30 pm
There's a girl in the bathroom, crying in a tub
With a razor in her hand,
Covered in blood.
11:00 pm
That same girl is sitting on her bed,
Thoughts running rampant,
Wishing she were dead.
12:00 am
She goes to a store
And buys rope.
Her neck is what it's for.
9:00 am
Her parents go out.
She ties up the noose
And keeps telling herself, "This is it, no doubt."
9:15 am
She has the rope around her neck.
But suddenly her phone goes off.
She tells herself, "I will regret it if I don't check."
9:30 am
She's sitting on her bed, in tears,
Reading a text,
And it's taking away all her fears.
9:31 am
The text says, "I love you and I'll always be there."
It continues with, "I just wanted you to know I pray for you every day and night."
She carefully took off the noose and stepped down from the chair.
9:40 am
The noose is unraveled and on the ground.
She throws out her razors
And prays to God, "Thank you for making me found."
The Text That Kept Me Alive
