THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE AND REBIRTH

About to die,

don’t cry for me.

I thought I was sacrificing all

to become a titan

but I was losing all

that made me a titan.

My slit wrists gape open

like sleepy eyelids

My blood decorating the

room for early Christmas.

I laugh in the face of death

Let my white teeth sparkle

as I lie in the casket

like dry bones

.

.

.

I am reborn.
