Trigger Poem by Carrie Salazar

She packs her things.
She leaves the gun on the table.
She looks at all the pictures.

Is this worth it she thinks?
Do I really want to do this?
She will miss him.

He is with another girl.
He is sleeping with her.
He wouldn’t even notice

She picks the gun up
She puts a bullet in it.
Will she shoot herself?

What does she have left?
He took it all.
She will miss him always.

She can’t take it anymore.
She picks up the gun and
Puts it in her mouth.

Dear lord please forgive me
For I have sinned please accept as ur child
Forgive him please lord make sure they know I love them.
Thank u
She then pulls the trigger
