You found an old
Suicide note yesterday.
It was under your bed,
Wedged between
Your book bag
And some old clothes.
You read it again and again
Till your shaky hands
Tore it up into tiny
Paper pieces.
You cried till your face was
Wet with tears and your
Eyes stung with regret.
The fragments of the note
at your feet.
Then you finally smiled,
Your lips turning upward
Ever so slightly,
Because you're alive to
Feel something.
So don't you think
Maybe there's a chance,
You could stay alive?

Goodbye, Pastel
PoetryI wonder is you can feel it too- The discrete pockets of sunlight Slipping through on dreary days; It warms my skin and fuels my smile. I'll keep the garden, After all. {Sequel to Fake Flowers}
