Assisted suicide... The white coats are waiting Little pills to stop the pain All’s needed now is to swallow To sleep and stop the shame A shame that didn’t belong A family left to morn A journey already written A body broken and worn Go gently to the white coats Keep my hand till you silently slip Swallow down your shame, my father I’ll remain till you lose your grip

Losing to Switzerland
Assisted suicide... The white coats are waiting Little pills to stop the pain All’s needed now is to swallow To sleep and stop the shame A shame that didn’t belong A family left to morn A journey already written A body broken and worn Go gently to the white coats Keep my hand till you silently slip Swallow down your shame, my father I’ll remain till you lose your grip
Another poem relating to my fathers impending assisted suicide in Switzerland.... and I wonder why insomnia is my friend
