Suicide's Wife

Sipping vodka,
I pour myself another drink,
wondering why pretty hurts
and only love looks beyond the skin.

So many people just like me,
their souls escaping this world every day,
no more abusing,
no more pain to be endured.

Sipping vodka,
I pour myself another drink,
ready to start a new life,
becoming Suicide's wife.

And as I say goodbye
to this cruel world,
I smile upon my face with peace,
for I was not afraid to die.
