The Suicide Comments

wonder why /i was afraid suicide my seems goofy / what is freedom i do not know

A suicide poem that has impact, partly because it is spoken by a man on the spot to a group of onlookers. I do like the ending: 'This man with the shy smile has left behind ' Something that was intact'.

i love this poem i have been looking for other poems and writing my own i have been sharing mine in diffrent chats ill be back thank you for sharing this poem once again i love it

Almost the whole poem seems to be from the perspective of a detached, nonempathic observer. And then the last 4 lines startle the reader into considering the possibility that the writer may have known him. Brilliant!

....very nicely penned, with a touch of mystery ★

Excellent piece of work... thanks for sharing.....

Very unusual Prem nicely written thanks for sharing it.

Intact! Thanks for sharing.

brilliant poem of some one in despair, so sad.

Very powerful because of the apparent lack of compassion- yet the last five lines spoke with humanity when he left this room By catdrop sleight-of-foot or simple vanishing act, To those who knew him for all that mess in the street This man with the shy smile has left behind Something that was intact.
