The thistles of comfort.

Topic:
Suicide
|
Sitting at some window,
Looking down at the ground.
Knowing if I jumped I’d be smashed to pieces,
Long before I’d be found.
Knowing I could die, from smashing open my head.
Or just a loss of blood from coughing up some red.
I could die from over does. I could fall from the sky.
I could jump off a bridge, and that way die.
I could do my wrists in, or hang my-self with a rope.
I could take an overdose, off a simple thing like dope…
Those hazy thoughts have just become clear.
I don’t like this! So why am I still here?
It would be enough, for me to run away,
Only thing is, I’ll be brought back again.
And I can’t hack, facing that pain.
When I’m dumped back at home, pushed into my stain.
And I can’t see then point in strong effort.
When I only have the “Thistles of Comfort”.

| Interesting metaphor of thistles - I see them as something protecting you against further pain (when, as you say, there's nothing in your head, the wanting to die/escape is a comfort) and yet in themselves they're not natural, and so represent the wrongness of your suicidal feelings. Hmm twisted explanation. But however you meant the image to be interpreted, it's still pretty interesting. |
