A Note

i've already thought of my suicide note.

Yesterday's a blur

I can't remember happiness being part of

the day I've gone through.

I pat my back, I did it.

I managed to survive

but when will be the day

I lose everything and say

I'm tired, I need to go.

It was never my fear

to think about comfort and despair.

I just know it's death

it's not a door to lead me anywhere.

It's a pause for them,

it's a stop for me.

They could decide what goes next

I've lost the will to do the same

It is my privilege

to take my body to rest.

It's their choice

to mourn or rejoice my death.

A nice way to conceptualize the idea of writing that goodbye note. Will it read as bitter? Will it be sad, or whimsical, or vulgar? As one who has actually attempted killing myself, I never felt the need to leave a note. I was too tired, I had nothing to say...to ANYONE. I hope this is just a concept and that you are not actually thinking of writing a note. Don't think of who will MISS you; think of how many people you would HURT by your actions. Be well, my friend. Truly a well written piece. take care...dan
