A Note to My Mother

What would you say if I killed myself today?
If my suicide note neither rhymed nor flowed
What would you say if I killed myself today?
Don't tell me you'd be crying
Don't cut me further, mother
I've learned to do it by myself
I hope my wrists make you proud
What would you say
If the pieces breaking off my body
Weren't poetry, but limbs?
What would you say if I killed myself today?
Climbed up to your balcony
With no Romeos to whisper to me
What would you say
If you found your Juliet, bleeding?
Watch me drown, mother
In the canal outside our house
Th rock tied to my foot heavier than any horror
You could procure to frighten me
Watch me die, mother
Don't say anything.
