Poem -
Peace
It is the last part
Everything is done
Come with me please
Iโm absolutely terrifiedย
No one wants to be stuck alone
Not during the end
And never ever to be honest
If I rhyme will you follow?
You know Iโm just hollow
All these pills Iโm about to swallow
In self pity I wallow
Ok - Iโm done now
This simple little pieceย
Of shit I just wroteย
I swear itโs no suicide note
Iโve received two of those
One from my friendย
And one from my father
Iโm taking these pills so I wonโt have to bother
Feeling anymoreย
Itโs bliss I adore
Let me float away
To that better goddamn day
This is the only way
I know how to stay
In that place that I can play
All the time - all day

Hey man I can identify to this. My family has gone through this my whole life, and I'll say to them as if you were my family. Let it beat you, or kick it's ass. Your poetry is great. Let that be your spear. Leading you in the battle of addiction. Don't let the past bully. You set your own path. Addiction is a mind set. Just as a person would say. I could never do that. Quickly setting themselves for failure. Before even taking initiative. Don't let excuses kill your success, or people will label you under that never category. Hey you got this bro! Let go of the ghost.. God bless you with your self trials!
Wow. That was an excellent response. Thank you SO much for the insight! Youโre absolutely right! Smiles!

Hey no problem bro. I to had beaten my addictions. It's not easy, but it's harder to think that would be my demise. To let a choice of momentarily relief win. So I can wake up and push it all back down. Making life seem like a child's toy "slinky"! A top then bottom again. A man is only worth. His own self worth. Be a king or a lost peasant. If you ever need to vent. Message me judgement isn't for me. That's between you and God. Hope all goes well, and kick that money off your back!ย
a sad and angry write I can relate.ย Suicide has affected my family and friends more than once.ย Great job
Thank you for sharing. Suicide is SO confusing. It never gets to the point of being โunderstoodโ. At least not for me. So crazy. Thanks Susan. Smiles.ย
Nice write about a dark subject Michael, I'm sorry to hear you've been through bad times and can relate all too well to how the pills can help block your emotions. Take care - Sydย
Thank you Syd! Yes - Iโve tried to numb myself in the past. I donโt do it the way I used to thank goodness. But Iโll probably have to face the remainder of my demons very soon. Iโm too old for this crap. Ha.ย
Wow, beautiful imagery.ย
Thank you so much Lisa! I love your writings so much too!
Michael died in 2018-
He didnโt commit suicide, nor did he overdose. ย He left behind boxes of writings that will someday be shared.
