Laughter carries into the next room
I ask (with a half of smile)
"What's so funny Charlotte?"
"I'm just really happy" She says.
(I watched her for days sit in her room miserable)
I thought to myself [About time.]
(I wanted my friend back.)
She said "Phallen, will you give Mark back his jacket?"
(Huh?)..........
"yes, of course". I replied.
BANG.
And just like that, she was gone.

Great form and layout. Very strong and wonderful ending...a great shock and a bet heart wrenching.
Nicely done.

Thank you for entering.
Good poem, but suicide doesnt make me sad anymore. Dont think of me as heartless, but ive realized its something that happens. Ive read so many poems with suicide as a topic, and it just doesntmake me sad anymore.
