If tomorrow
Could have
Offered more
Would he
Have closed
The final door ?
Burning tears
Eyes and face
A bitter thought
In anguish now
A deeper pain
Reaching so
Far back
Totally sane.
Childhood memories
Garden swing
Scuffed boys knees
Mothers kiss
Teenage years
Adults myth
Forgive me
He asks
In tremoring voice
I felt I had no choice.

Feeling that there are no choices left is the worst confrontation to face. Been there. 🙏🏻🕊
its a difficult subject but felt I had to write it
Glad you did. 🙏🏻🕊
Dark and sad a tragic flash of memory described before a suicide. Well done
thanking you, a difficult subject
A painful and sad write to read, but a very valid one as it is on the increase, have been there and it's an awful place to be, nicely expressed and written
Thanking you, yes sadly increasing
You are very welcome
