The principle addressed the school
saying she had something to share
so all the students leaned in close
and they all began to stare.
Then she reached
into the pocket of her coat
and from within it she pulled
a crumbled, tear stained note.
She said, “listen closely.
this is something you all should hear.
and after it’s read
look at yourself in the mirror.”
She cleared her throat and read,
“to everyone there,
I’m long gone
and I know that you don’t care!
Do you even know
who I am,
I’ll give you a hint,
the one who’s soul you damned
I was so tired of the feeling
that I was never going to win.
So now I’m dead
my last, unforgivable sin.
I just wanted to thank you all
for making life a living Hell
because of your trips and pushes
I often fell.
But don’t worry
now I’m out of your way
and I wish you all luck
until your dying day.
So I bid you ado,
my final goodbye.
I already know
none will cry.
Say goodbye to my mother,
tell her sorry for leaving her alone.
Farewell,
Author Unknown”
The principle dried a tear
that had formed in her eye.
The student were baffled
was this a joke, a lie?
No one seemed missing
The school was the same
but Author Unknown
never again came.

great write. ive never read anything like it. good scenerio, good choice of words, it all fits together. This actually brought a tear to my eye. A lot of people can relate to this and sadly, its a topic a lot of us face good job.

I can't deny my own identification with this write.
And generally, I hate suicide writes
Mostly because I try to disassociate myself from the topic these days
However, I can't deny the brilliance of your own writing ability in this piece, and you should not suffer because of my own unfavouring disposition to the subject matter.
So I'm making allowances, just for you
Just make sure you check for typos
and put your name in the author box like I asked please?
thank you very much, and good luck
