Mind of a Suicide. 6/25/04
Can you imagine what goes on in the mind of a suicide?
Open the cabinet
Close the cabinet.
Open the bottle.
Count the pills.
One by one
until the work is done.
Would you want to know what goes on in the mind of a suicide?
Barely dressed
walking in the pouring rain
ice cold water
numbed out pain.
Blurred visions are all the eye can see
going insane.
It’s gone inside of me.
Can you even begin to imagine what goes on in the mind of a suicide?
One step.
Two step
off the ledge
break your neck.
Heart caving
down the wet streets your pacing.
Out of breath
into death!
Do you think you can handle what goes on in the mind of a suicide?
Muscles contracting
on your intestines you gagging
hole in her liver
not a medicine to give her.
Hopeless thoughts fill your head.
30%
20%
10%
coma.
Life support.
Pull the plug.
Close the casket.
Dead.
You’re about to enter the mind of a suicide,
It’s surprising.
It’s calm.
You wouldn’t even guess that something was wrong.
It’s so focused.
She moves like a zombie
making preparations
so calmly so silently
You’d want to whisper for mommy.
Then it comes so fast
it beats the clocks tick
a trigger is pulled
splattered on the walls so quick
you see the blood turn red
body falls
it’s over
dead.
