You know? I've often wondered- When I hear of suicide. What was the person thinking, Just before they died? What solace were they seeking? What comfort did they find? These are the type of questions- That clutter up my mind. Were they fleeing from some heartache? Or depressed by failing health? Or an issue far more common- Like dissipating wealth? Was it a case of mental illness? Or the despair of waxing age? Or frustration of the lack of mark They’ve left upon life’s page? Whatever brought them to that spot- I greatly fear they found... No comfort in the state called death, Nor rest beneath the ground. |
