J.A.E

Topic: Suicide

I'll never forget how I felt that day
When they told me that you had died
I barely reacted, I think I fell silent
I sat on my bed, but I never once cried

I couldn't believe it was you they meant
The bright young chap with bright blue eyes
Who took his own life right after his birthday
I prayed and I wished they were telling me lies

It never hit home until the nighttime
That you were never coming back again
I missed your eyes, your smile, your laughter
Nothing would ever be quite the same

I spoke to your Dad for the first time ever
He told of your funeral day
I told him I'm sorry, it shouldn't have happened
That Jim took his own life away

The day of the funeral I was much too nervous
I think I was shaking from head to toe
We got so lost, we missed your burial
Guilt of that day will never ever go

What more can I say, you're sorely missed
I wish I could see you just once more
What made you do it, we will never know
Only you can ever know what it was for

What an emotional write...I'm so sorry you lost a friend that way. I read suicidal poetry on here all the time, and it just breaks my heart, to think someone could feel so helpless, that they can't go on. If you ever need a sounding board, feel free to PM me....Take Care,
Scorp.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
