The poem is striking and thought-provoking. This delivers a clear moral urgency in just a few lines, with a tone that feels both personal and universal. Very nicely written dearest Tittu ❤️
I\'m so happy that you revealed the truth to everyone!!!! This actually put a smile on my face, a prayer in my heart ❤️ and always a thought in my mind. Thank you very much.

Your poem powerfully captures the themes of resilience, self-love, and the profound need for acceptance, shining a light on the struggles of individuals who are often marginalized due to their appearance or personal battles, and how this leads to profound feelings of isolation and desperation, serving as a powerful reminder of the damaging impact of societal norms and the transformative power of compassion, empathy, and kindness, inspiring a call to action for greater understanding, tolerance, and love towards those who are perceived as different.

I guess the world is more interested in material beauty these days, may I just say that Pamela Anderson has single handedly brought beauty back down to earth, choosing to be herself without makeup, without plastic surgery, she had a boob job in her 20\'s but that\'s it, beauty really is inside and in the eyes of the beholder, it\'s not just nonsense it\'s true, and my dear Tristan, I wouldn\'t care what any other human thinks of me that\'s just wasting time and energy and emotions better wasted on loving ones self. A great song my dear friend.

There\'s a fundamental horror of aberrations which, aided and abetted by hauteur, only worsens the situation. Besides, perception is half the problem. This pretty number seems incomplete, begun, yet painfully lacking closure. Thank you so very, very much for sharing this.

Pertinent subject matter that is addressed sensitively in the notes and promotes discussion on how others perceive suicide and defines opens the door for a more considered sensitive and non judgmental approach to a very tragic and real element of life that is too often swept under the carpet. Well done for discussing such a sensitive topic with both the scalpel and thee sensitivity in the nites to balance. Brilliant and socially very responsible to include a helpline at the bottom. Well done Tristan, I’m passionate about mental health and this is a delicate subject that you have dealt with with skill. Elizabeth

I like seeing the \'still\' drawing...
So, I got curious...and, wanted to see the \'animated\' GIF...; but, didn\'t really note a whole lot of difference. Just a \'blinking\' effect going really \'fast\'...showing \'white/black...white/black\'/-etc.

Let\'s hope you get a Harley Davidson instead of just a peddle bike, more your style I\'d say. Stay well, look towards the sun instead of the rain and you will find all that you are worth within. ❤️ Have a rest and see you soon my darling Tristan.

Dear Adorable Tittu,
Just wanted to say — your poem really spoke to me. It’s raw, honest, and strong in a quiet, grounded way. That last line hit like a declaration — and I loved it. You’ve clearly been carrying a lot, and it takes real courage to put that into words.
Wishing you all the best on your mental vacay. Take the time you need, and come back when you’re ready — not a moment before. We’ll be here, and so will that damn bike.
Take care, truly.

An important subject in my humble opinion, my brother committed suicide he was 25 and for the last 26 years of reflection, have come to the conclusion that some souls are just not meant for earth, they are more sensitive more restless, and no matter how much we try to help them in the end they leave, because that\'s what gives them peace. because that\'s just how it was supposed to be. This is only my thoughts in any case, my mother died of a broken heart in the end, so I know what suicide can do to us, the ones left behind. Kudos my dear Tristan. A subject even though devastating can also bring a great debate. 🤗

A very dark and sad subject to discuss, but you wrote about it nicely, my friend.
Your poem addresses themes of mental health, addiction, societal judgment, and the struggle for dignity amidst grief. It emphasizes that while suicide is condemned, self-destructive behaviors like substance abuse are often normalized or overlooked. The poet appears to serve as a challenge to societal norms, provoke thought, and foster empathy for those struggling with these issues, highlighting the need for understanding rather than condemnation.

No one has any right to pass judgement on anyone who has tried or succeded in committing suicide. Even if you have had bad times yourself, you are not inside that\'s persons head, we all cope and deal differently with issues , it is a terrifying, lonely desperate position to be in, and I would not wish it on anyone, valid, poignant and honest write

Hello, Tristan,
A very interesting poem. I know of six people who committed suicide either out of depression or a broken heart, two of which, I have no idea. They were all very determined and meticulous even. The pangs of living must have been unbearable and constantly unbearable bearing down on heart, soul and mind. As for the other \'acceptable\' ways to go, I\'m guilty of alcohol nicotine and caffeine especially so in my youth. This is an excellent poem, a valiant publication. Well done indeed. After reading this, I could not help myself from remembering those poor souls who lept to their deaths from The Twin Towers.
Fond regards,
Tony.

Creatively written this poem is a dark subject often avoided and when addressed often too late. Loved your formate again drawing attention to the downs and WIDE The subject is contentious and has many points of view. The taking of a life even your own has repercussions on others but then is it right to force someone with no hope of reprieve from chronic pain and suffering soon doomed to die anyway to live further just for others pleasure? Well done Tristan

You, you, oh YOU!!!! You men, particularly, know how to drive me insane in a heartbeat. Case in point, this pretty number! Argh! I want to scream in frustration! And yet likewise, I dearly love, love, LOVE this particular piece. Ugh! Unintentional suicide. We love to live dangerously. On the reverse side, our frenemies like to kill us slowly. Did I not fear the Scriptures, I might indulge when sorely tempted since sometimes lately the entire world is pointedly antagonistic and I\'m not interested in being tortured. Besides, those who do take their own lives deliberately have their Creator to answer, and He\'s already answered. Enough of this can of worms. Gorgeously rendered with excellent imagery, clichés, poignancy and humor. Thank you so very much for sharing.
