Suicide Note , Comp Entry

Listen to poem:

Colour of the rose that I left with the note. reddened eyes reading what I wrote. Instructions for funeral readings I want spoke. my motives and reasons I quote. suicides my option the knife to my throat. one single crimson drop lands on my coat. nothing can stop me now, my depression had no antedote. Very dark comp entry Its what came with Crimson 26072016
