Choosing Death Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Choosing Death



Languishing in a mountain pool of tears, feeling upset, heart being wrenched in all directions with no support or care.
Never-ending plaintive cries escaping, hoping to exorcise the signs of suicidal thoughts from within.
They are mounting higher and faster than ever before and I can no longer ignore their worth or my desire to cling wholly to their essence.
Seeing with clarity, the loneliness, emptiness, abandonment of being on a solo journey, and no longer wanting to be a part of it.
Assessing measures and methods of taking and burying a life of no use, looking closely at the calendar, choosing a date in the near future to culminate life on this side of the horizon.
