5th Annual Poems About Suicide Month

[Kingsausage1778]

Cry out, as the abyss stares inside,
Burn out, as the rain drowns the tide,
Laugh out, as the demons hitch a ride,
Stub out, dead cigarettes in my eyes.

Build shields to invisible enemies,
Pour oil on persistent memories,
Fight fire with a broken heart,
Don your mask, and play your part.

Light dims with each dying day,
Like dead cigarettes sleeping in an ashtray.
Broken body haunted by a broken soul,
Agonised by the absence of the heart I stole.
