Dear Mom, I Think I'm Suicidal

The life of a person living in the shadows of suicide.

Dear Mom, I Think I'm Suicidal

Dear momma,

Did you know I was suicidal?

Momma, this isn't a letter of reconcile.

This is a goodbye.

I don't think my life means much.

Momma, don't you agree?

I know when you're around me.

You can smell the insanity.

Let me fade away into your conscience.

Sometimes I wish I never existed.

I mean, look at me.

A useless heap.

If I'm gone,

you wouldn't have another mouth to feed.

Momma, can't you see I'm bleeding?

The constant fights with the Devil

have their penalties.

I've been gone for hours and no one's noticed.

Hiding in a field of flowers,

all withered and dull,

don't you get it?

Momma, I'm the essence of death,

a contradiction of creation at its finest.

Please, momma let me die.

Give it a week and I'll be a distant memory.

Momma, the world will continue without me.

Momma, wouldn't you feel serene if it were wrong.

Sing me another melody before I go.

Momma, I feel The Reaper's scythe on my throat.

My body is getting cold.

My colored skin is becoming pale.

Life is falling apart now.

I was never good at puzzles.

Momma,

these suicidal thoughts talk often,

the whispers in my sheets,

hushed tones with a sense of urgency.

Momma, don't lie to me.

You say you love me,

but how can you love your demons,

vile, twisted beings.

The Reaper has done his work,

yet the world still hasn't stopped spinning.

Momma, it's been days.

Momma, it's been years.

Momma, I've been watching,

and everyone is still smiling.

My hourglass has been shattered.

In the end, no one shivered

No one cried.

No one begged God for my resurrection.

Momma, take care,

you're free of your demons.

Don't you see?

My death was a blessing...

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
