Self Inflicted - a Suicide Story

Ability to face his fears, gone! Bewitched by a demon for so long. Could not conceive a positive thought. Doom and dread was all he sought. Echoing hallucinating voices in his mind. Friendships meaningful, he could not find. ‘Go ahead, end it now!’…. He’d hear them say. Interdict he should live to see another day. Just then, he concluded what to do. ‘Kill myself undoubtedly, then I’ll stop feeling blue’. Longing though to change his mind. Moods flared up, of every kind. Never had he felt this low. Only solution is to merely let it go. Pick a course; blade, gun or poison? Quickest approach, without a reason! Reflecting nothing, he simply acted. Sanguinary wound, self-inflicted! Thoughts of despair as he laid there bleeding. Utter commotion, so very misleading. Veils of black line the chapel floor. Weeping eyes, dry no more. Xylophonic gizmos the performers played. Yawning a soft sweet serenade. Zany acts could not be predicted, resulting in death, ‘self-inflicted!’
