I Committed Suicide
I Committed Suicide
I stretched out weary hands. 
Melisa, who considered me 
like a big brother, quickly ran away from me. 
My heart writhed unto me; 
I longed for a swig of water. 
Noise danced, rumbled inside me in thunder. 
But the whirlwind heard 
the swoosh...

	Being Committed
	Written: by Tom Wright
	1998
	
	Lord, how can I a difference make?
	There are so many souls at stake.
	For Lord, you see that I'm but one,
	I'd work from dawn to setting sun.
	
	There’s so many things to see and do,
	I've no time left to work for you.
	When I...

Premium Member I Committed the Perfect Crime
My husband acted like a complete jerk
had countless affairs with women at work

He wore spray on jeans which fit so tight
and aftershave called ‘Tonight’s the night’

I knew for sure that things weren’t right
as he’d hide his cell phone from my sight

I’d opened one of his...

'committed'
You said you understand me head to toe,
But why didn't you understand when I asked "Is it necessary to go?".

Follow me you said when you left a trail on the track,
And you crossed the horizon from where I couldn't see you coming back!

Leaving behind memories...

Committed To What
Your promises don’t inspire me,
they seem insincere
Always floating, shifting commitments,
the details are artfully dodgy
Arranged in such a way,
they might as well be confirmed by a ghost
And those serpentine friends of yours
are snake whisperers 
Subtle and sly ... 
secretive as a spy
You and them seem to...

Committed
Before the drought
I loved this land
From North to South
And every sand

The mountains high
The serried trees
The azure sky
And fragrant breeze

Poincianna flame
Lime Kiln burning
The children's game
Maypole turning

And morning sport
Sweet pots boiling
Ships in the port
Fish net drawing

I love canoes beached
On littered sand
The sermons preached
By mother's hand

The flowers do...

Crime Committed With Use of a Weapon
The more weapons there will be:
the more likely a crime will be committed using one;
the lower their SES (socio-economic status) will be;
the lower their intelligence level will be;
the more likely they are be mentally and emotionally incompetent;
the more likely they are to have a persecution...

Sad Soul Committed Suicide
Sad Soul Committed Suicide

Up into the sky, he went for a ride;
His sad soul had committed suicide;
Did loop di loop;
And barrel hoop;
Crashed plane and all alone he died.

Premium Member Our Cat Just Committed Suicide
Got a text message from my wife, our cat just committed suicide
Very impersonal don't you think, used to be a phone call making us cry
What have we become
With a finger up our bum
People are too busy for a phone call to hear our dear cat...

A Surgeon Who Committed Murder
When a surgeon had to operate on a man, she was pissed.
She botched the operation because the patient was sexist.
She learned he was sexist and botched the operation so that he would die.
She bragged about it to her friends, it was something that she did...

Admitted and Committed
Admitted and Committed

Those who fool around and this admitted;
Realized comedy f errors have committed;
Learn how to speak,
Should others seek;
From all efforts to improve you benefitted.

A Crime Was Committed
three suspects are in sight
one driving
one unknown
one with a gun
everyone's taking about
336 maple street
i couldn't find it
but remember 
it was only a dream...

Dad
You were not perfect
But you were good.
You were decent
And I have only recently
Understood
The true meaning
Of that word
And what it can cost.
You were a man whose moral compass
Never seemed to falter,
Whose honesty would not alter
No matter what, in consequence, you lost.

You stood there quietly firm
Committed, through...
