In their shoes
You have to
Get in
In their world
You have to
Fit in
Markings
To show that
You have tried
Showing signs
That you're ready to die
Going to meetings
After meetings
Still missing one
A jumper
An overdoser
A hanger
Day after day
Case after case
Still no real reason why
Deep pain
Needs
Deep pain
To set them free
You'll need protection
Because
After
You try to catch a Suicider
You'll become a Suicider
Sorry to say

In my experience, you don't see it coming. Those that did it didn't talk about it.
But maybe it's best they didn't?
It's always a sign you just maybe don't see it or you just ignoring it
Another thing I noticed, is that, my friends who say they want it, never do it. It's the quiet ones that kill themselves. Maybe not all the time, I don't know that.
Of the four I can think of, it was unsuspected, and devastating.
Suicide is from the pit. I have been through the temptation of it, myself.
But, if there's a way to combat that, I am with you.
Empathy requires experience and I hear this in this poem. A deep write of psychological spider webs that one may get caught in. Lovely
Thank you so much
I think there is a message in here that you should never get in deeper than you can handle,a powerful write
