I felt too bad today and I opened the web search for "suicide." I couldn't feel better still after the search, so I made these 4 lines to express my feelings.

untitled

I’m not a human being, I’m a garbage, I’m a rat,
I’m a monkey or what, I am nothing to a god,
No matter how much I shout, the stones just laugh;
Kill me if you want, I don't care, I am bad.

There's nothing you can do, no way, no how,
To make God love you more than He does now.
He sees you through the eyes of Christ, His Son.
He died that your salvation might be won.

Because of Christ, your life begins anew.
The good in Him outweighs the bad in you.
Rejoice in that, my friend, and don't despair!
Go make your day! And know He'll always care.

There is no singular for garbage so it should read,
I’m not a human being, I’m garbage, I’m a rat,

Also I have trouble with the line,
"I’m a monkey or what, I am nothing to a god,"

This is my feeling but as a Christian I can't read "a god" without brining up the whole pantheon. I would write "I’m a monkey or what, I am nothing to god," Some people capitalize God.

Also, the last line is ambiguous in one way, the "I am bad." can be interpreted two ways, one is a value judgment. I do not think you or I am qualified to judge you bad or good, but we can judge your behavior bad or good. I make this distinction as a logical one. So maybe you mean useless, or defective. Judging a person good or bad does not seem human, bad being a property associated with behavior rather than a person. This judgment also violates the spirit of change that people live in. If you qualified it with this moment, but I still object to it.

Good luck

P.S. As for your mental state, it is a very good sign that you are asking the hard questions and self examining. Keep up the good work. The tenet you can hold always is that God loves you. It is an identity. Be happy

Low confidence?
No seriously! It sounds really like you have a bad confidence! Has anyone ever told you that you are a good writer? cause you are! Hey why think of suicide, when there are so many things you could do?
Think you should say to your self more often: "I am the greatest person in the world!"
That will in time help you confidence!

You're a human, kid -- by birth,
And all of us have equal worth.
Think it over for a minute
The world is better with you in it.

We've all been there in that hole
Life can take an awesome toll
Before you wish for it to end
Buy a pizza -- call a friend.

(Ahem...there is someone in your life who wants to know you're this down, and you're hiding it from them. Call them. Now.)

But.................God says, "You are important. You matter, I have plans for you to prosper and be in health. Plans for life and not death." Here is a poem written personally for you by me today this moment:

Oh, Broken One, lift up you heart,
Trust the Lord for a new start,
Time passes quickly as Jesus calls you by name,
He whispers your name, but you remain the same,
He is calling to you to accept me as King,
Of your life and to rightiously and gloriously sing,
Praises on High to Jesus the King's Holy Name,
Jesus is there to answer your prayers,
Come and draw near and lay down your cares,
Take Jesus into your heart,
Release all your pain and make a new start.

JESUS IS CALLING YOU, FRIEND DRAW NEAR TO HIM!

Why did you write something like that?!

Be more optimistic! You are definitely NOT garbage.
