I Bid Thee All Farewell

I bid thee all farewell. Please your tears, for me, do not expel. I cherish all your adoring presents; At my last push-off it warms my icy essences. If the overwhelming urge arrives Please do not rise. Hopefully this doesn’t brew hate, No eyes should behold my present state. Now I must lay my head Beneath the ground you now tread. To heart take my words said Because I’m to now lay eternally in this bed.

Sounds like you were in a very dark place. Sometimes people go through with permanent solutions for temporary problems. A close friends 28 year old son committed suicide a few weeks ago, the pain it has caused is unimaginable.

Honestly, I have a very dark imagination which a lot of times has no bearing on my life. One can’t help what their imagination conjures up. I’ve never contemplated suicide nor would I ever.
