How To Kill Myself

by Nearly but not quite   Jan 14, 2006


I think of death sometimes,
Quite a lot in fact.
I wonder what it's like to die,
Does your life flash before your eyes?

And then I wonder how to end my life
And thus my problems.
I could find a cliff from which to fly,
Or take a knife and hope to die.
Needles, pills, there's so much choice
Suicidals should rejoice
But it's all there just to confuse
The one who would end it all simply.

Should I make a necklace of rope to display my body from the ceiling?

Should I stand in a bath and electrocute myself?
Or lie in it and drown?

Should I put my head in a gas cooker till I suffocate?

Or should I take a gun and put it in my mouth?
Against my heart?
Above my ear?

Please tell me because I'd love to know
What's really the best way to go?

Please comment, I appreciate constructive criticism as well as praise.

    I guess I've only ever thought about it, never got to the point of having to have some one forceably restrain me. Thanks for your concern, but I'd rather live than die.

    Well I guess it really is quite wierd how many ways there are to kill yourself, and I can't even remember if I included jumping out of windows!
