Yesterday she committed suicide
Barrier tape everywhere,
What did she have to fear?
She felt life had nothing to offer her,
Her feelings just a blur,
The police men came,
To pick up her remains,
She had her fifteen minutes of fame
For all the wrong reasons
Tortured, Tormented, Tragic,
Life held no magic
For her
Yesterday she committed suicide
I ask myself why.
This is a very powerful poem now Lesley, obviously the incident affected you greatly and you have now expressed this very deeply.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
I keep coming back to this poem - it's a great opening line, plus great last verse. My only critism is I feel more could be written, nore of the story told though I appreciate as it clearly based on a true life experience that writing more may not prove easy?
