Recently a really good friend's sister committed suicide, and these are all the questions that will remain unanswered.

Everyone asks why?

Why would this happen?

Why is life unfair?

Why would someone do that?

 

Everyone asks what?

What could have changed?

What should've been seen?

What did we do wrong?

 

Everyone asks when?

When did we hurt her?

When did everything go dark?

When did she decide?

 

Everyone asks how?

How is this possible?

How is she gone?

How am I supposed to live?

 

Why? What? When? How?

The golden questions

Without an answer because

The only one who knows

 

Is. Gone.

Questions... all without answer. This is a good poem. It has an great theme, a wonderful presentation and an interesting yet subtle end. Truly, This is one to be admired. Great piece.

The questioning is unrelenting. Very brave of you to deal with this in such a constructive way. There is no clear answer to how this can be made easier for those she left behind, because there is no way besides time. Time heals all wounds, even if they leave some scars. Wherever she is, she is at peace now. Beautiful piece Sheila

Hey, you have marvelously woven pieces of questions into an elegant poetry talking of life's harsh reality. The opening is as good as its ending. Brilliantly written! Thanks for sharing!

I wish I knew what to say, but I can only sigh in sympathy, and commend you for tackling such a tough subject head-on and producing something so vividly poetic.
