It was on impulse-

One second

Too many

I choked

Then swallowed

The pills

 

I sat

In shock

Yes I

Wanted the death

But did not expect

I would try

 

Suddenly

Dread

Anxiety

Fear because

The pain 

I might feel

Would hurt

 

I read

The side effects

Stress

Can’t tell

Anyone

 

Texted a friend

He was sad

I didn’t come

To him first

But there

Was nothing

He could do

But talk to me

In attempted comfort

 

The despair

The loneliness

Shaking

I sat

Panic

I felt

But then

At last

Peace

    Glad you’re alive to create art.

  • Peter Pan - The Rock

    Good poem. Suppose some of the best poetry, really is about real events...

    And of course life for some... can be very sad. Peace... can be difficult to find.

    Time... there are somethings... that just... never heal.

    Anyway... Hope you're alive.

    If you are... please, try and keep it that way.

    Yes... sometimes it can be our own choice.

    Or it can something that is imposed.

    Many things are so.

    Best luck.

    Very nice.
    I tried to do it but then I became stressed when I thought of my family. Now I try it with cough drops. Doesn't work. So I stopped. This poem is so powerful. Amazing poem.
