Rising from the Dead Isn’t All It’s Cracked Up to Be

I’ve come alive again,  
found my way out  
of this tomb;  
a bona fide tale  
of resurrection  

bearing solid witness  
to the spiraling decay  
of my grip on reality,  
not one soul mourned  
my tragic passing  
 
I died by my own hand  
after all, amirite?
 
 
and now no one  
is left to celebrate  
as I return  
to my rightful place  
among the stars,  
finally free  
 
No, not anymore  
 
all that remains,
a collection of letters
delivered while I rested;  
venomous words  
carved deep  
into my chest  
about how  
I should have  
done a better job  
of not dying  
in the first place
