She did too good a job in the wrist slicing department and died
-------

I said to her parents:

You don't know how miserable she was.
She felt she had no choice------& she had none-----
None tha she knew of

-----

They said:

But there were choices!

--

I said again:

None that she knew of
------

But you know the other choice
The other way!
-----
Yes I do:

I said
----

THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL HER?
WHY DIDNY YOU PROTECT HER!!!!!
--------

I was quite dumbfounded

Finally I said:

I tried

But I couldn't convince her to dare try it

She was too afraid to live

Too addicted to death

In a sad way
She was sort of enjoying herself

It was all she had

Suffering was her friend

-------

I was stunned to hear
myself utter these words

They did ring true however
So I stick to them
------

I say :

I'm sorry

When I stop

By her grave
