Dear Suicide
You were like my unwanted bride
Left in the rear view mirror of life
Your existence no longer a daily strife
Every once in a while
Returning as if on trial
I’m no longer waiting to end it all
Appreciating each and every “fall”
Your clutch no longer around my throat
Myself having constructed a deep enough moat
For years you were a constant companion
Now left behind with much abandon
You had me convinced I was not good enough
That my life was rough and too tough
Though I miss the mind games played
Freedom from fear has away stayed
As I appreciate each day one at a time
My life is now much more like a poetry rhyme
So don’t come back with your useless thoughts
I’m not looking for any new plots
Farewell I say unto you
You are no longer my glue
