SUICIDE IS PAINLESS???

If you cry out loud, in a room by yourself, does it make a sound?
If you mind feels shattered, in the middle of the night, can the pieces be found?
If you bury your head, in the pillow so deep, will it stop the pain?
If you rip out your heart, in a moment of madness, will they think you insane?
If they bury you deep, in the cold, cold ground, will the truth they see?
If you wait long enough, in the mists of time, will your soul become free?
Does the pain go away if you take your life?
Does the sadness end with the slash of a knife?
Does the pain go away if you end it all?
Does the sadness end when you jump off the wall?
Does the pain go away when you lie there still?
Does the sadness end when you pop the last pill?
Just before you breathe your last,
They say you see all from your past,
The good, the bad, the black, the white,
Do you ask yourself then, "Was it worth the fight?"
If the answer is yes it's too late by then,
You're about to die, this is the end,
No going back, no second chance,
So dance with the Reaper, dance, dance, dance!

Loved it, deep and able to help most anaylize themselves. If we cannot see inward , to what is the real of ourselves, down deep ... how can we love or acknowledge anything else with honesty? You write your way clear, thanks for sharing, be well, k

Yeah, and if you end it today, you won't get to see how tomorrow turns out. Bummer.

Where did you drop your soul?

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
