On Attempted Suicide Poem by Dr John Celes

Our earthly life is priceless and too dear;
From womb to tomb, a struggle long ensues;
Sometimes, our aims and dreams remain unmet,
And life can turn to be cruel like hell!

But who wants after-life when life is tough;
All yearn for bliss and toil to attain it;
And no one wants to end God-given life,
Unless despair, and hopelessness pursues.

When sadness, grief afills the human heart,
And anguish lurks within its core always,
The weakened mind resorts to suicide;
The cut upon the wrist is never deep!

All love to live a happy life on earth;
All love to live a life of span and style;
All love to have their dreams come true in life;
The cut upon the wrist is never deep;
At times, it can be, unfortunately!
