Suicidal Thoughts

Suicidal Thoughts

By Devon Coupland

Pain, Sorrow, Suffering,
Tare at the heart with
Every breath, leaving you
Gasping,
Wailing,
Wanting to die. The thought
Of suicide always visible
In the mirror of the knife,
On the table of pills,
And in the box of shells.
Gasping,
Wailing,
Crying, you find your choice.
You lecture to God about
Creation, compassion, and love,
You swear at your friends,
And curse your enemies,
Gasping,
Wailing,

You die.
