Suicide Survives
Fictitious families
Dysfunctional means
Compromised children
Capricious teens
Serrated self-loathing
Culling scarred skin
Dapper diagnoses
Dulling depression’s din
Psychotropic pulses
Sedentary screams
Subjugated subjects
Catharsis of dreams
Dusk dawning
In convenience’s vanity
Vociferous voices
Pilfering sedated sanity
Slurred smiles
Lithium lies
Hanging from vestiges
Suicide survives
