Can I tell you how I died?
Why it rhymes with suicide.

Not because, I fell ill.
Not because, I swallowed pills.

Soon you'll see why I lie still.

Not because, I have drowned.
Not because of, Russian Roulette's

last round.

Deaf words of mine,
preach no sound.

Not because, the fault of life
Not because, the sharpened knife.

Real reason, why, tears went dry.

Not because, I jumped to fall.
Not because, this body I mauled.

The more I remember,
the harder too recall.

The true answer is i'm,

alive.

But to me,

the meaning of suicide:

Is
 that
  you
   left
     me
      dead
        inside.
This has no relevance to my feelings, it was just a poem that flowed through my mind in the shower so I decided to write it :/

The thing about this poem is that it gives people who has never dealt with suicidal thoughts in person and just brush it off, understands that you don't always show what you feel inside.

And that is truly a good thing.

I really enjoyed the way you showcased suicide.

It seems to me that you showcased suicide as not caring what others think about how you are right now as a person. That the more alive you are, the more dead you are, and that is truly, beautiful.

So let me tell you something people, suicide is not a laughing matter, let that sink in.

Beautiful.
