Why?How?

You left this world in an unruly way
To free yourself from all the pain
But you leave us here
To sit and suffer in your selfish act
What about the pain you have now caused
What about the tears you have now made people shed
How could you do this
Why would you do this.

    This is a great poem...Love it. I can relate. It is hard to overcome such strong pain. But in the end you will become stronger and you will built up enough strength to move on and be happy. Rejoice b/c the Lord loves you. And no matter what troubles you face he will be there to guide you all the days of your life. Much love to you. Good luck!

    As I replied to x-rated, this person shot himself in the head in front of his 2 children (1 week old and 6 year old.)

    He had just gotten exactly what he had wanted for the last 6 years which was custody of his son. He was in no pain, or dismay. He had the gun and put it to his head and said, "watch daddy," to his children.
    To me that is very selfish....
    I do not think that suicide is naturally unselfish but this case was.

    I thank you for reading my poem and leaving a comment.

    I agree with x-rated. I see no shame in self inflicted death. Nice write though. I understand your point of view.

    i've never understood why it was so selfish.
    when a person is truly in pain no one can truly understand what they feel or what demons they keep.
    no one can really know what keeps them awake at night
    and why they cry themselves to sleep during the day.

    i don't think finding a way to relieve the pain and sorrow
    is selfish.
    maybe i'm just fucked up.
    or maybe i was just one of those so-called 'selfish' people.
    i dunno.


    sorry if that seemed like a rant

    It is a selfish act. I couldn't stand to hurt those that love me in such a way. I guess when we are at our lowest lows we think those who actually do care, really don't and we don't see that they really do and how much it would hurt them.

    Thanks for entering.
