Suicide Note

Today is the day I decided to take my life

No clue how, why, where or when

Like a child with a kite, I stand with my knife

Need to act fast; just count to ten

 

Curious is what I call these feelings

But not sudden, I planned this when my mind was unbidden

Not from illnesses or injuries but from something beyond any healings

There is purpose in life they say, for me it was always hidden

 

The faces I saw today had something special 

The smiles in their faces shone like stars

This is my last day, perhaps that\'s why It\'s so crucial 

The last thing that will remain in my body will be just scars

 

Just like any day this shall also pass

Tomorrow my dog will search my empty room, silent with knots

My family would look into the photo of my funeral mass

Maybe I too will be remembered in someone\'s thoughts.
