Hero Or Coward Read Count : 255

Sub Category : N/A
If I cut open this vein to feel the blood pour out would it release the hate, loathing or pain of the world 
If I sob for hours in utter despair would it stop children from dying,  wars being fought, or losing a loved one
If I scream at the top of my lungs until my voice is stripped would the racism, lies, or injustice cease to 
exist
If I took all I had, every ounce of my being, every drop of my flesh & offered it up would rapist, murderers or death be satisfied
If you had a choice could you give your life to save another or are you a coward

    This made me shiver. I have been in a bad enough place before that I tried to kill myself. I thought of myself as a coward for being unable to follow through.
