Suicide
Suicide
took his own life
He gave up mid-race.
Screamed for help, but in a world.
From people deafened by their own ego.
Nobody listened to you or tried to help you.
I had to learn to swim by drowning!
doing the right thing wrong
He had to pretend to be strong, but in the end
He surrendered to the arms of death.
The world was empty and cold and scary.
No reason, no color, no mercy, no love
Fears took hold of him.
He didn't commit suicide, they killed him!
Now, it doesn't matter anymore, the doors are open!
Cemeteries of a thousand graves open today!
A thousand and one here lies a common man.
He was passionate about life until it became
The cause of so many wounds.
People are like weeds.
They grow and kill the garden.
What's left for him?
Endless sadness and pain
He cut himself until he couldn't take it anymore!
He blamed himself for the sins of others!
Hypocrisy.
Where were you when he needed you?
Silence.
That's what he thought.
