Suicides not selfish

Maybe I'm not sorry
That I left you all behind
Maybe this is what I need
And iv made up my mind

Suicide is selfish
Thats what you all will say
But your the ones who make me
Live like this each day

Every second hurts
More painful than the last
And i will forever hate myself
As I relive my past

So I hate you all

The many suicides of black men

The many suicides of black men

Black men deserve love too
Even if its just a simple 'I love you'

The world tells them they have to be tough
But enough is enough 

If you're complicit
In being a witness
Of their mental health issues
Don't be confused
If they choose suicide 
Don't be surprised 
I mean you didn't care when they were

For the Holiday Suicides

ever hear those obnoxious individuals claim that a lot of
people killing themselves around the 
“holidays” is a myth?
ever see them walk with self-righteousness
as if they shouldn’t be bothered with the very idea that others in this world
might not share their abundant joy
when it comes to the genocide of native-americans or
the “birth” of a fictional character?

isn’t

67 Suicides

My eyes are open yet I see nothing
because there is nothing to see,

I go to my job and stare at the clock
there's nothing that I want to be,

I long to be conscious when I am
asleep
perhaps in my dreams I am free,

I seem alive but I'm really half-dead
and my path is strewn with debris.

Tale of Suicides

Pull the sun down, watch our world burn.
Would they steal the crown, the destiny we yearn?
I'm running towards death, though we've met before.
One last breath, is held in store.
In this world of violence, who could save the day?
Feel the chilling silence, and decide what to say.
One at a time, heart attacks are revealed.
Is this war

Two Almost Suicides Due To Art Because of Me

laying in the bath tub
he threw up again
devouring the headache
addicted to his worst enemy
i cant tell you the symphony she played upon her arms
the sharpness i tried to keep at bay
how hard it played upon me
i would try tyo hide away
drugs and booze
only numbed me
sleep all day
pretenmd were not fighting
one more day
we can make it

Suicides

In despair,
beyond-pain, I will watch my dreams
in rimless eyes of wet faces.

The lake had been sending back
the white and black shrouds
everyday.

They were jumping one by one
old and young,
from the twisted planks
holding geraniums.

A warm prayer on the lips,
what was left worth enduring ?
The innocence, the guilt, the shame ?

Clinging to bloody lumps of happiness
who is going

Vet's Suicides

The latest survey
eighty suicides per day
by our Veterans

Such a big disgrace
CBS investigates
this whole cover up

These folks fought for us
no one's taking care of them
they would rather die

Someone should be held
accountable for each one
who takes his own life

If they had something
that they could look forward to
they won't want to die

There's hope in Jesus
message needs to go

The Grinning Tears That Held the Shade of Southern Suicides.

There was the capture of life somewhere inside his eyes...

We wiped away tears in the slipping of secrets, and I remembered the draw of suicide as
the shade of Southern Octobers grasped me in his glance.

He pursued me, his kiss and his smile the nets that tangled my feet up North, somewhere,
on I-95, his voice interrupted
