The Best Poem Of Laurie Flynn

Last Breath

Commitment.
For life.
To commit- to do with no withdrawal.
This is it, you have chosen it.
Commit a murder- one cannot be revived.
Commit to a marriage- eternal bond of love.

Committed to the act of ending it all,
Marry the ground in a public proclamation
Of your love- or self hatred- after falling
Among the stars which hid in the depths of
The endlessly black winter nights.

Take one last breath,
Towering, quivering, above the stone cold
Ground. That will be you too soon-
Frozen in time; hard and grey.
The earth has cracked you, but beyond repair?

So kiss the earth goodbye.
Plant your lips on its cheek when you
Leave, one scarlet stain that shall be
Wiped away by tears or rain.
Evidence gone but your touch will linger.

Commit. To commit.
Can you?
Can you end it?
For good?

Take one last breath,
And think again.
