THE SUICIDE BOOK

By CareLuv



The suicide book

     is on my bookshelf

     hiding between Plath and Poe--

loosely bound and sinking

     pages

          heavy

                    laden

     with grief

     put to ink

     put to words.

 

And I wonder

      if the weight it carries

           grows

      with each day

                it remains unread...

 

It has a presence and a mind

     screams in the night

               and sobs...oh how it sobs.

 

     It sobs

 

 

                           inconsolably.
