Premeditated

I lay and ponder all night on things you have sought, like seeking all the darkness wanting to get caught, your mania and depression made you distraught. Your suicide was definitely aforethought, and now your labeled the woman who never fought. With all the goodness in the world you could have brought, but you chose to perish without a single thought. Your premediated careless death was so wrought, a terrible and unnecessary onslaught. No jewelry or monuments could have been bought, to make you stay, for you were filled with so much fraught, I think about all the goodness you could have taught. 12 X 12 Monorhyme Contest January 12, 2017

Sad, Laura, but well-constructed monorhyme. Congratulations on a fine piece; the win is just icing on the cake. We never know when a bit of encouragement will help a person through the trying times and change the desire to end it all.
