Subject: Failed Suicide


Me.
Sitting... listening...
Blood.
Pulsing... roaring...
reminds me of a big steam engine.

Myself
Sad... lost...
Lonely
Pills... drinking...
reminds me of a loser

Voices.
Chatting... laughing...
Sounds
Throbbing... echoing
reminds me of an acid trip

Time.
Stopping... freezing...
Memories.
Flooding... hurting
reminds me of a jigsaw puzzle.

Pills.
Gulping... swallowing...
Darkness.
Encompassing... overpowering
reminds me of peace.

Faces.
Concerned... grotesque...
Sirens.
hollow... loud...
reminds me of the war

Hands.
Reaching... clutching...
undressing
Charcoal... oxygen
reminds me of brutality.

Silence.
hollow... loud...

Me.
Sitting... listening...
reminds me I have to die
