lonely stones of despair,
but i only stop at one,
for only i know who lies there,
you could even say i murdered her,
for i took her life away,
but i knew inside she was dying,
and couldnt make it through the day,
now and then i wonder,
could it all have been alright,
one day would she stop crying,
and sleep happily through the night,
flowers all around her,
from people i never knew did care,
but everyday they visited,
maybe they had always wanted her there,
maybe if she just gave them a chance,
and didnt always turn away,
someone could have loved her...
but no, it could never be that way,
i look at the engraved name,
and suddenly i feel so alone,
its sad to be a suicide,
once you realize that the name is your own. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 193 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Chanti [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

Graveyard Of Despair

Topic: Suicide

As I walk through the graveyard,
lonely stones of despair,
but i only stop at one,
for only i know who lies there,
you could even say i murdered her,
for i took her life away,
but i knew inside she was dying,
and couldnt make it through the day,
now and then i wonder,
could it all have been alright,
one day would she stop crying,
and sleep happily through the night,
flowers all around her,
from people i never knew did care,
but everyday they visited,
maybe they had always wanted her there,
maybe if she just gave them a chance,
and didnt always turn away,
someone could have loved her...
but no, it could never be that way,
i look at the engraved name,
and suddenly i feel so alone,
its sad to be a suicide,
once you realize that the name is your own.

its a sad thing, because most people that commit suicide dont know how much they are wanted and loved until it is too late, and some people forget to show these individuals how much they love them and such while they are still alive; great write, keep 'em coming

What a powerful write! You really have no idea how many lives you touch, how many would miss you if you werent here.
Well done! Larry :o)
