On Suicide- Because eventually every good writer thinks about it...

 When one wants to die 

         it is love that keeps one alive.


The idea that someone would miss you

    That someone for whom your death wouldn't be a guilt inducing occasion

            Would grieve. 


Makes you pause. Go to sleep to wake up another day. 


    The idea that you are not alone

        That someone loves you enough to agree that 

            Suicide, or the theoretical contemplation of it, isn't crazy

                But could be considered as just another viable option

                    Makes you feel seen.


and

being seen is enough

it is enough

the conversation

is enough

to choke the thought

and make you glad 

that some one loves you 

enough

that

two some ones love you enough

to enable you to stay

even though 

to go

is 

restful thought.
