[WARNING: THIS VIDEO IS DEALING WITH SUICIDE AND SELF HARM]
poem: Scroobius Pip - Magicians Assistant
song: Frank Federsel - Freuen und Danken

I didn't plan to start the new year with a video like this, but I needed to make this for a while now.
a good friend of mine commited suicide a year ago and I'm still dealing with a lot of grief, anger and guilt.
so if you had to go through something like this or ever thought about commiting suicide, please watch. I'm sure that these words can save lives.
not by making them feel guilty but by making them see what they are about to walk out on.

[sladur4etoo]

You have no idea how this video affected me.. and all of us!

I'm crying right now..your video will make realise everyone that watched it that there is still hope..even in the darkest moments,even after everything we've been through.. there are still people who love us ..who are there for us

It's just..fantastic! Thank you for creating such a masterpiece <3

this is beautiful. the poem is amazing and I love the editing, and how the clips are from the OC... it relates to it a lot... this is amazing, best version i've seen

Only someone who has never been suicidal could ever think this poem makes any sense. It may make sense to you, on the other side, and I understand that sometimes suicide is very difficult to understand. There is nothing selfish about suicide (okay; there are few exceptions) because when you are down so low you think leaving is best, not just for you, but for everyone.

I love the editing, its great, I just disagree with the message.

this is a truly beautiful video. You captured so much emotion in it and made on a different plane than just another vid. I'm sorry for what you are going through and I hope making this helped your healing process.

That is the least helpful thing I have ever seen and if it was ever up to me I would paste over any link saying WARNING: IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO'S SUICIDAL, *NEVER SHOW THIS TO THEM.* Hi, yeah, you're feeling so much pain it seems like the only way out is death! Rather than help we'll make sure to guilttrip you to the very end and to make your pain about US - "how could you want to leave a life with me in it!!" *seriously*? - and make you EXTRA MISERABLE AND ASHAMED because that's going to help.

You dealt wonderful with a very dark theme and like others said before, I hope this makes people think, because the poem is very powerful and true.

[Mariiyam13]

Wow! This is stunning, every word of this poem is so true & your vid is just beautiful... I can't stop watching it, it's haunting...

[SunnyThenRaining]

This video is really incredible. Since I found this video I've been watching it at least 10 times now. The last part gave me the most shivers.

[MiraculousMoments]

Wow. Just Wow. The colouring is stunning as usual, and the poem thing was so powerful. I loved the way you matched the clips to the lyrics - in a way that really told the stories of each character involved. This is heartbreakingly sad yet beautiful. I'm sure it took a lot of courage to make this.
