Suicide or submission

contest entry~

Flicker

the sound of the blade rings

the air vibrates at its call

The girl shudders at its gleam

Flicker 

the gun clicks

the shot lays ready

her hand falters

Flicker 

the pills rattle trapped in a plastic prison

the lid waits calling 

She shakes and finally submits

Three times she tried

a constant struggle 

never fully decided

yet the last time she chose

Happens all the time, that's the reason I'm not dead yet. I fight on and on... Don't mean to rant.

Still, and amazing job. It captured the feeling of this oh so well.
