Is it there or is it not?
Before my eyes a deluge of inner thoughts converge,
broadcast on an open plain
for lack of words to feign its impossible meaning

Does it dance or does it walk?
Upon a stair cased flowered veil to deceive,
brilliant the light does mimic
in effervescent golden silhouettes

Will it scream or will it sing?
Only time will fill the feast with ample solutions
Listen close as mornings find us
sleeping on empty cartons of a desperate phrase

Does it live or does it die?
Within my mind the scattered illusions come to bear
of endings soon to find their path
in freedoms born of cascade truths on darkened city streets

I don't think I'll write
A suicide note.

What an obvious
Statement, when
I'm plainly not
Contemplating suicide.

But I never liked the idea
Of suicide notes.

And it was not
The idea that
Somebody had
Killed themselves.

It was the idea that
Somebody could have such a sad
Life that they could fit
All they had to say into one letter.
