Reaching Out

From a lonely grave a broken heart reaches out Touches within my intermost being without a doubt Did she not have any courage left within her grasp A tiny bit to help her cling on and a small hand to clasp Wondering for years what really happened back then Accidental poisoning or suicide in the glen Six days she lingered in agony's strong grip Was she able to repent and leave on the gospel ship?

You have several poems about someone you know who killed themselves. You capture the sorrow well in your work. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
