***TW: mention of suicide and self-harm***

My boyfriend of 5 years died by suicide last week, he was only 20 years old. He loved this song so much he got "how rare and beautiful it is to even exist" tattooed over his self-harm scars. This song, as well as all of Sleeping at Last's songs, kept him going for a long time. The first two lines hold a new meaning for me now: "You taught me the courage of stars before you left/How light carries on endlessly even after death." These lyrics give me hope that his light will continue to shine in my life even after he has died.

He was the most beautiful person to ever walk this Earth. He was kind to everyone no matter how well he knew them. He had a pure soul and a heart of gold. The world didn't deserve him.

***Edit*** Wow, I am overwhelmed at the huge amount of love and support I have received from strangers on the internet!! I have been periodically liking uplifting comments and replying to a few, but mostly I have wanted to keep my privacy about the situation (aside from what I already shared). I was not expecting to get so many likes and comments! I wrote this comment on impulse when the wound was fresh and I was in immense pain, and I expected it to get lost in the sea of other comments. So thank you for your support and kindness!! You all have restored my faith in humanity.

***Update*** It has now been almost six months since he passed away and I have been successfully dealing with PTSD from the trauma I experienced. I am in a much better place now then I was when I wrote this comment, and I thank you all for keeping me going during such a difficult time in my life. I’m glad my words mean something and can move others.

***Update #2*** It’s been one year since he passed. I’m now able to look back on our memories and be happy, but I miss him every single day. His memory will live on with me and those whose lives he impacted. I really appreciate everyone’s kind words and I hope his story inspire others.

If you’re struggling with suicidal thoughts, please reach out for help! You can do this, and you are never alone. You are loved and wanted and needed. The world needs you.

Here are some resources:
Trevor Lifeline: 1-866-488-7386
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255
The Trevor Project is an amazing resource for LGBTQ+ youth. You can use their services even if you aren’t in crisis! Their lifeline has helped me get through some really tough stuff.

Please check on your friends and family members!! This pandemic has been tough for all of us but those with mental illness need a little extra care. We need to acknowledge secondary deaths caused by Covid and do what we can to help prevent them.

A message to the future generations. Don't let this song die.

My husband committed suicide last year. He had depression. I was six months pregnant at the time and we already had a three year old son. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about him. Now I’m alone with my kids and it’s really hard emotionally. I just found this song and I’m happy I did. It’s like he sent me this. It’s exactly what I needed. I feel so heartbroken and alone but this song gives me hope.

"How rare and beautiful it truly is that we exist"

This line makes me extremely happy and sad. Anyone else?

[Gustixa]

I'll tell my future children, this is the most beautiful song ever made in this world.

To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever you constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace peace and calmness fill your life 🌼

Dear people,
is this song from another planet? Because I cannot describe how beautiful it is. It makes me wanna cry, it makes my wanna love, it makes me wanna run, perhapse fall, but then stand up and run again, faster. This thing that this song makes gets inside of you.. it makes you sad and happy at the same time, it makes you wanna live, it makes you feel everything.. all of these emotions trapped and lost inside of you, they just come out.

This is without a doubt, the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart

[lorriestevens]

I don't tell many people about this song. Some songs are so amazing that the world NEEDS to hear it. This isn't one of those songs. This is one of the songs that has such meaning to you that you just can't share it. You want to keep it to yourself, as selfish as that is. You're afraid to share it, because you know they might not like it. And you can't be mad at them for that, but you will be. Because this song is so full of meaning, and you can't explain why, but it is. It's a song to fall asleep to, it's a song for staying up. It's a song when you're sad, and you WANT to be sad. When you want to just lay down and drown out the world. It's a song for late night drives, a song for thinking about those you have loved. And those you lost. This song is just...everything. And I can't put into words how much I love this song. Sleeping at Last, thank you for this masterpiece.

My dad died just a little over a week ago. Suddenly. My whole world stopped. I’m 22. I don’t know how to live without my dad. This song has been with me through so much, but nothing as hard as this. I miss him. Thank you for writing this song. It’s beautiful. He was beautiful.

I just want to write this there. I do not know if someone is in the same situation as me, but I will say it anyway. My life is not that bad. I have not lost a loved one, I live comfortably, I have a stable situation. At home, I guess everything is going pretty well, despite the problems that everyone has. Only, I never felt like I was as alone as I am today. I do things, I watch things, I occupy myself, I work a little, and I live quietly, but nothing seems to fill the void that I feel. I feel like I'm doing everything, but nothing is useful, I'm just empty. And I feel so weak to feel that, because I have what you could call "the good life". I cry sometimes, but I don't know why, because nothing should make me cry. It is said that the most important thing is to do your best, to always try as much as possible. But I do not go to the end, I stop in the middle, and I can not do more. I have no passion, no talent, I live to live and that's it. I never confided in this way, I have no one close enough. Do I really have friends? No. I listen to them chat, and that's it. They talk, and I listen, but I never answer. And it's horrible, because people live in situations so much worse than me, but I just feel sad. All the time. and alone. finally here, I spoke and I said what I felt. (By the way, sorry for my english not always good, I don't speak fluently.) With that, have a nice day. If you don't feel well, cry, it doesn't make you weak. Kiss on your cheek, sweety.



"Kind of an update, I guess?
It's been 7 months since I first wrote this comment, and as you can see, i'm still not over this song haha.
I don't think that the people who first read my comment will find this again, but after all this time, I feel like writing again.

In general, I'm still the same, and I still feel the same. My life hasn't change, neither my feelings about it. But I think it's gonna be long until I can finally say that, yes, I've found myself, and I feel happy. But i'm not here to talk about me again. I just want to thanks every people who commented until this day. Even if not all of them were adapted to me, it really made me happy. I felt like I was not alone, and I even cried while reading some of them because I just want all those people to be happy. Even if you're all strangers to me and won't pass through that comment again, thank you. Thank you so much, and I hope from the bottom of my heart that one day you will finally feel happy, as you deserve.
(Sorry again, in seven months, I didn't get to be fluent x))

"you know what? why not. Today we are the 18th of february 2024 and it's been three years since i've first wrote this comment. I think I haven't heard this song in a year now. I was just looking for some music to listen to while working and found this song that made me feel so much. I saw this comment that I did when I was at one of the lowest point of my life, and thought that I could update it, even if i'm the only one to read it, a bit like a diary. So...Years have passed since my previous update and... a LOT of things changed, the most important thing probably being: I finally met my people. After years of spending hours and hours alone, with no friends and this idea that people could never love me, I met some of the most incredible person that showed me what love really was. What it was like to be loved for who you are. I'm still completely lost in life, last year as one, if not the roughest year i've ever been through, but I'm still here. I'm still here and I intend to fight with everything I have to be happy, to live a happy life. I know it's gonna be hard, and i'm probably gonna fail, but I think i'm ready to start taking care of myself. Please, take care of yourself. We'll make it, I promise.
