[hometext] => A friend asked me to write her a poem. Her brother killed himself. He called her to come over. When she got their he looked asleep in his chair. After she came home a call came that he was dead. Tell me if it' s good enough to give her. Thanks...
[bodytext] => As children play in memories’ past, Days there were full of laughs, Mornings started in much the same way, As did the nights at the end of the day, Then as children must always do, As each year passes so they grew, From children to adults they do mature, And begins their lives with small detours, Little girls once ~ Now, become wives, Little boys also begin new lives, Brothers and sisters now separated by miles, No longer confide ~ As did the long ago child, Putting on their game face and hiding the pain, Not wanting to be the one to complain, Life gets harder as the years race by, Alone in a world with no allies, Failures ~ Real or imagined ~ Are failures still, What happened to the child who believed in goodwill? A new best friend ~ A bottle to drink, As it slides down ~ No need to think, Then one day the drink doesn’t numb, And thoughts of suicide begin to come. ~~~ More and more these thoughts rush in, The drink really wasn’t your best friend, The sister and brother that was left behind, They wanted help but you were deaf and blind, They wanted to help pull you back, But you kept planning this morbid act, Finally, you did it ~ You killed yourself, You never thought of any one else, You couldn’t see past the bottle you held, So, the family you left ~ Is living through hell. ~~~ If you could hear your family cry, You’d be sorry ~ That you had to die.

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. ©
