Comments : For Those Who Left This World Way Too Soon

    What an emotional poem this is. I have been affected by suicide and this poem really spoke to me. I think the idea you have used, by creating a list of different situations, is quite a creative way to grab attention at how often suicide takes part in this world.

    I like how you gave the simple little stanzas, yet they hold so much because each one shows us why another helpless soul left this world. And you showed them how it might have been different.

    I really like the part when you say " looks were not everything, but the future husband would have showed her that" - what a powerful message. It gives off the impression that she felt unable to find love, or to consider that she could be lovable. How sad.

    This poem really touched me, and I feel passionate about issues like this being raised, and written about. So thank you for writing and sharing.

      Thank you very much for your comment, it really moved me because I have been suicidal myself but I'm in recovery and I wanted to share my point of view and my experiences on the matter.

      I'm really glad you liked the poem and I hope I managed to raise awareness in some way.
