Poem -
GOLGOTHA SCORNED
Was that a sigh?
Did you whisper?
Perhaps a prayer
Through parched lips
Can it be this black
One on oneΒ
With ebony
Submerged in Jet
Needed forgiveness
A taste of mercy
A second chance
A one more time

Golgotha
Scorned
Come on
You knew the rules
the way it was played
You chose
You didnβt know alone
Until now
No prayer heardΒ
here
Nothing matters
Now
Never longed so
For cessationΒ
No death here
No end
Aching empty
Despair
Forever

My biggest wish is that no one ever feels that way, horrible
it was my friends four year anniversary yesterday he committed suicide, I wish he had the strength to spit in the face of darkness - and live.
I have lost several friends to suicide.
a maze of interwoven fears and guilts left behind.
i remember them with much sorrow
thank you for reading

Sorry to hear that John
I feel it's our duty to add light where hope is lost
The world needs more love
Much peace and blessings

The tragedy of despair is the darkest of emotions we hope never to experience...A subject that many shy from but needs screamingly to be hear..you have made this a very expressive platform John..not an easy write I suspect but so worth the effort. Truly powerful !! Lodigiana xΒ
