This is the story of the daughter of a stranger that I have met recently. Suicide...so sad.

On a dreary day of spotted rain She said good-bye and angels sang Someone's child- running in wild but no-one can retain Doctor's tried to pick her brain They really never understood How could they, they have never met Satan- like she Held her neck, a ball and chain A dose, daily...of pure cocaine Tequila...morning, day and night Her daughter's death...she bare not live Her life, so sad...on a one way train In the end she left her stain Bang! She took her life...now no more pain Lines To Awaken Your Muse 2 Poetry Contest Sponsor: Joseph May 3-4-2020

Very sad. You did a great job of telling her story. This is a torment suffered by far too many people. Great poem my friend.
