Best friend (Dec.1st 2017)

That day my best friend took his life
It wasn't pills, gun, or a knife
Instead he took an extension cord and put it to use
For what brought life to electronics caused the ultimate abuse
The last words he spoke
Before the final choke
I love you man, I'm sorry...

Many calls and messages I tried to send
Was this happening? Was I losing my best friend
A pray to the skies even though I do not believe
Your number rings in the late a.m I awoke semi relived

A female voice spoke I knew than before a word was said
My dearest best friend was really gone and dead
A feeling like never before enveloped me into awareness
Living how we want too but to damn embarrassed

Two days prior you asked, you asked if I would be at your side
And together best friends would honor the welcoming of suicide
And here I sit alone waiting for your guidance to the unknown
Slit wrists, electrical nooses, belly of pills gun shots left my mind blown
