All At Once Poem by Mathew Sutter

I lost a friend,
And a love,
All at once.

I wanted to die,
To decompose and never breath again.
It would have been so easy,
Since life is such a fragile state.

I had nothing else to lose or gain,
Except maybe the lose of no more pain
But for this,
I would give anything.

I lost a friend,
And a love,
All in one night.
And it ripped what little of me remained.
My sainity has run dry and my act is almost finished.

I can feel it crawl up my skin
As my act reaches its climax.
I have everything prepared,
And ready to go.


And as I fall into the dark hole of death,
I am suprised to find a hand reach out,
And catch me.
I don't see the face, but they place me back on the ground.
And I know then,
That I'm not alone anymore....
