Suicide With Conviction

just a sad note

When the letter was read,
people talked about it,
but not enough was said,
it was with sorrow and disappointment
when they found her dead,
the flagrant and wanton infliction
of emotional distress,
suicide with conviction,
she settled for nothing less.

Wow! When one has had enough, they have had enough! It's short and powerful. The thought of saying it is a sweet write would defeat the purpose. Unwavering was this girl or woman who had her mind made up as to what she was going to do. A simple note that is so non-descriptive could really piss somebody off. Tit for tat? Thought provoking! Good job!

Very Powerful write.. and anyone who has lost someone in such a dramatic way can feel the emotional strain of not knowing. Very impressive. Can't wait to read more

Very moving poem. Suicide is such a sad event. Wrecks several lives at once. It's a very selfish thing to do.
