The Tears Of Suicide

The Tears Of Suicide

A Poem by Eric Cox

Sorrow seeps inside and chokes the soul
thoughts of suicide can bleakly toll
life grows haunted by the desire to escape
life is void of fun as negativeness drapes
things seem like they will never change for the better
tears haunt the soul since the mind thinks this is forever
life can feel like the torture of hell when haunted by pain
with the coldness of the world there can bloom a crimson stain
no one deserves the tears of suicide in their soul
I pray those crying climb their way out of each hole
the sun may shine for you and brighter than the sun
the act of suicide will eclipse what may come
the wake of self death brings tears to friends and angels above
when we can we should heal the seeds of suicide with love
so sorrow never seeps inside and chokes the soul
and thoughts of suicide never bleakly toll
we must never be haunted by the desire to escape
let the tears of suicide never drape.

The deeper true feelings can be so much more impressive than the superficial plot lines that I often come across. I admire your courage, to write about, it makes you a strong personality. I think every word you write in here artfully describes it outstanding for quite such a heavy topic. My compliments. Perfectly written! I felt all, and that is what makes you a good writer.

@piggy review: What an awful person. I doubt she has ever lifted a finger for anyone but herself without a huge reward in it for her. What a bi#2%!!! I"m not surprised she has closed her account, being as hateful as she is.

Nice that you made this with very cute rhyming. So did you get off your arse and save someone or is this just words? They always say, write what you know and really words don't mean anything without an action. Pretty.
Awful.

Ghost, you did a spectacular write on this sad subject. Can't even imagine what someome might be going through not knowing their pain or loss in their life.

Suicide is a very tragic situation. The pain that drives someone to take their own life is awful. You did a good job on this poem.
