The Suicide of Henry B, Damd

"The Suicide of Henry B. Damned!" Between the edge of secrecy and seething brink of lunacy there went I to the very deepest darkest part of me! I preyed upon my bleakened soul to bring an end--this was my goal to every thing that keeps me breathing deep inside of me! But in the darkened night of it I pained--and then I flenched a bit and what it does to keep me going is my mystery-- Before the end that was my cause, the cutting edge it slip--I pause! my hesitation's left it beating keeping life in me! Within it--my own misery I bring sorbented hope in me to end this cursed life defeating all the will in me! And blackening my mind, I show the blade just where it has to go to cut the very heart that's beating cursed life in me!
