a poem about suicide


hero

she is walking on a bridge in a white summer dress...
bedroom eyes, rose lips, round forms...
clowdy sky above, deep gap below, everything else grey;
a storm is about to start any moment...
silence...so much silence...
her eyes see a young man
ready to jump into the abyss.

she keeps on walking

watching him from a distance;
he is too damaged to be saved by her,
his soul is already taken...
she sees that, she knows that ,
she does not save anyone...
he looks at her astonished by her beauty,
waiting for a sign, unable to speak..

she keeps on walking,

she passes him like nothing happens,
she pretends he is not there ,
she goes on her way...
the man jumps into the abyss, but she cannot see that

because she kept on walking ...

This is haunting, this is vivid.
