Suicide: POV Trailer PoemA Poem by Douglas Levi GribbinsBye everyone 1 to 10, i wrote before I attempted suicide 11 to 20, is After i was brought back to life, treated at a mental hospital for over a week, and brought back home..
1 pill...2 pills...blood runs down the drain...but how many methods...can you name?
3 pills...4 pills...pop off the caps,Will I reach ten before I collapse...? 5 and 6, Tragedy strikes, stop,who was to the blame? We discard the problem and look for a name. 7 and 8....Don't look at my face, they torture me blind, with no reason in place 9 to 10, and with all you said, Thy soul haunts on..but I wanna be dead. Goodbye 11 and 12, I'm coming back, standing up, against my own attacks 13 to 14, I've raised my sword and shield, I stand this pain with God I wield 15, 16. It's been a week, backs broke, jaws off, But i still walk and speak. 17 and 18, I've changed my thinking, I ain't giving up the next time my ship starts sinking 19 to 20, It's not over, Here I come, world. I am my own soldier.
