Solace

Solace
The pain we feel when suicide takes a friend or Loved one away
Makes us do an inventory of what we could have done to prevent this day.
Our minds race from thought to thought
about this incident that won't easily be forgot.
Many times we take on the ownership of their pain
From the act some will only view as insane.
I too have been at that eternal brink,
when killing myself was the only thought I could think.
With all the love, compassion and support we can give,
there will always be some who choose to no longer live.
All you can do then is support those they Loved and left behind,
and pray in the afterlife there isn't any more pain for them to find...
