Poetry: Suicide

Suicide

I cry each night to end my life
No happiness in this man's soul
Will it be a rifle or a sharp knife
Just one less man in this human role

You may ask why end your life
And giving up is not the answer
But I have no family and no wife
And soon to end my human cancer

I shaky hold this rifle to my head
I have pulled my deciding trigger
And there is darkness as I lay dead
but life goes on, being so much bigger

    WHAT?

    What darkness
    Leads a tortured soul
    To break the bonds
    Which hold us
    Voluntarily

    What illusion
    So influences
    A mind once so

    ANGELORUM (from Latin: of the Angels)

    Blood, chasing itself in my veins,
    wants to catch up with ecstasy.

    Restless crimson life,
