Time
Taxi’s, Twitter and Trauma
Are the words of my week I’m afraid
Thank god for time and humanity
For where would we be without them?
Time is always of the essence
And without humanity what am I?
Profound and enlightening experiences
Are what I can summise
Life goes along, a bird sings her song
And what can be for the rest?
One can never know as the world will still go
Until the end of time as we know it.

Good stuff. I also had an attempt at suicide to deal with many years ago.
I had to deal with the knowledge that it would have been less or worse was a matter of timing for which I hold my hands up.
Good result as she remains a friend to this day
