A Suicide's Prayer

by TJ Arizona Eagle   Sep 12, 2011


Dense sinister fog engulfs
a darkened hallway
compromising vision.
Ghost like shadows
lung and flicker shaking
my ethical motive.

An invisible voice whispers
a promise of sweet repose
offering peace.
Cold steel warms in my
hand, target sighted as
tears accrue.

I long for the sun to warm
me, for those I lost
to gather round .
Let me find the door
in this minds hallway
that leads to forever.

    Always your pieces leave me in deep thought. I think this line speaks volumes...so many times the simplest of lines are the deepest:

    I long for the sun to warm
    me

    I know this feeling well my friend. Glad you are once more among us. Take care of you!

    I don't know why I didn't came across this earlier. Your choice of words is amazing and they flow with ease. The title is already strong as it is, but then the poem, it's amazing. I like the imagies you portray and the feelings you convey.
