Suicide is An Option

By Jason Lalremruata

Click, flick through the channels of life,

sit back and enjoy the thrills,

of how it offers spills and fills.

watch as every opportunity goes by,

without knowing how much time away flies.

Why try so hard for a lost cause,

when you had taken such a long pause.

Soon after when you are left all alone,

Wonder when you’ll drop like a stone.

Hopeless and unrooted you will become,

changing soon to desperation without decent decorum.

Either a coward or hero you’ll become,

but please do not make it troublesome.

Here’s a pill to kil the pain,

or a trigger for the mane.

We have already told you that the Deep South is hot.

but in any case, here’s a rope to tie the knot.

I refuse to believe that this will happen,

but then I believe it will happen.

How it ends is entirely down to you,

To live or to die is up to you.

We tried so hard to help,

we did all we could do and everything to help.

What a shame indeed this has turned out to be,

a laughingstock or a symbol for the free.

As you saw ‘Please do not try this at home.’

Why must you pursue this void for restless roam?

guess then that is all there is,

but I wonder, should life end like this?
