Much Needed Escape

Should have thought of this ages ago...
Simply, letting go.
No need to hold on,
Friends don't understand my complex mind
Not when living is much unwanted
And death has a daily invitation
[[Let Go]]
Swallow those pills
Chase it with the liquor
Don't let go of the blade,
Let it slice through everything
Hold it down, press it firmly, move it quickly
[[You can let go now]]
Didn't want any plan to fall through
So I chose three
To help me make this
Much Needed Escape

    I really did enjoy this piece a lot. To me, it felt like you were using your suicide as a way to just float away, breath, get out and finally let go. Though also, this poem seems to be lacking something for me.

    I liked it much, yes, but something about it maybe just, isn't striking me as hard as it's meant to. Perhaps maybe I'm just not good at grasping onto the beauty of death and life? Dunno, but it's missing something small for me that's holding be back.

    But I will look back on it.
