Suicidal

Suicidal

A Story by Ashwin Shanker

One day Mary felt lonely, she felt suicidal.
She opened her Macbook and connected her Viacom to it.
She drew a picture of a pair of legs hanging in mid-air.
Her skill was sublime, she did a perfect job with the drawing. She posted the picture on Instagram. 
The picture got 500 reactions, several comments, a few likes (She unfriended them immediately);
Her phone kept ringing on and off for the next half an hour. She felt better. She didn't wanna kill herself anymore. 

The End

Your Poem in my way :

One day Mary felt suicidal
while opening her Mac book and connecting Viacom, she thought of sketching a pair of legs hanging mid-air.
Her skill was sublime & a perfect job was done
the picture got 500 reactions, several comments and a few likes on Instagram.
Her phone kept ringing on and off for the next half an hour.

She felt better laughing out loud
Of course; Dying was not an option, now!

I wasn't sure how I felt about the poem at first and to be honest the title rubbed me the wrong way. So I cleared my head and took a deep breath and read it with a clear head. My favorite part is where she doesn't want to die. She did something something about how she was feeling. I would say she was strong and knew what she wanted from the start. Good job.

I feared backlash from many people, but glad that many liked the work
i honestly believe this sounds like a middle school looking for attention but you explain that she is suicidal and that she was needing motivation to stay.


my last review was childish ignore it

Plot is good but I think
I would write the same Poem in a bit different way!
Use of "She" is done a lot of times which I think is not required & I also don't think you need to use "The End" at the last! - Its understood!

Rest - Cool :)
