Dead

I'm depressed. Please excuse any typos.

Seems like it happens alll the time

people say there going, going, gone

Give me a sign,

if you think I am wrong.

 

The whole world is screaming

inside my head.

so loud that it's silent.

I wish they were dead.

 

She wants to do it,

to pop that fatal pill,

the risky part is,

I don't know if she will.

 

Do I pry? do I poke?

do I leave it alone?

Seems like my advice

is going up in smoke.

 

But she still smiles

she still waves,

It's hard to beleive

it's her life I just saved.

Very good....but I'm sorry for your friend. :( This poem kinda reminds me of all those times that I saw people smiling and putting up some cheerful "show", but I knew they were desperate from the inside. Also reminds me I feel like my advice doesn't mean much when I try to comfort people. Excellent writing.

I wished I pry and pokes when I was young. Most of us learn by error. When a friend need help. We must do all we can. Great wisdom can be learn from your poem. Thank you for the excellent poem.
