I wish you happiness
As I point the gun at my head
As I tighten my finger over the trigger

I wish you love
As I shed my last tears
As I think my last thoughts

I wish you peace
As I feel my heart beat quicken
As I feel the chaos still around me

I wish you hope
As I see my dreams shatter
As I feel the despair of my heart

I wish you life
As I give in to my pain
As I greet death
My friend H's sister commited suicide. She left H a very sad yet touching suicide note. This poem is based off the suicide note that H found lying nect to her sisters body along with an empty bottle of Tylenol*.

(*I thought I should come clean about something here, since has been many years and I no longer live any where near these people. Due to the rather small populace of my town, which leads to a lack of privacy, I not only concealed H's name, but also the circumstances of the suicide. Her sister jumped off a cliff. Since it was a huge story on the local news, and the note so personal, I did not want there to be any connection. I feel at this point there wont be a soul out there who'd remember and guess I felt sorta like I was dishonoring her memory by lying about how she died? That is all.)
