Suicide Poem by Mereia Namatua

I look at the world around me
I see no hope
Yes my boyfriend left me
And I am toast
I tried to find solace in drinks
I tried to find solace in smoke
But I got more than I bargained for
Day in and out life has no meaning
Even with God every day I plead
But I think that God has turned away from me
My only hope for a resilient is gone with the wind
So why waste time as it is
When I have nothing to live
I will take my life for it’s my own
I do not care who all will be hurt
I am my own world
