Emily's Room (Suicide Poem)
Emily was sitting in her room
With the door locked and a pen in her hand
A blank piece of paper she stares until the clock ticks 1,
Hands were shaking and tears were falling
“To my Family” she wrote another bare gaze she tossed
She crumpled the blank piece,
She tried again, start over again and again.
Inside her head, someone’s whispering
“Nobody would care if you’re alive or dead,
No one understands; you mean nothing to them!”
She sits alone in her dark empty room,
And when clock tocks 3,
She took her soul with a dagger of blue,
Her last breath whispers a grin, “FAREWELL!!”...
Morning comes, clock ticks 7,
Mama draws closer and knocks on Emily’s door,
She doesn’t know Emily can’t hear her anymore,
“Emily, my dear open up your door!”
No response from the other dark side,
She opens it and screech, she collapsed,
She collected all her strength; she stood up and walks to her Emily dear,
She tilted her head over Emily’s remains,
She’s screaming and sobbing, “My baby, please breathe!”
She’s blaming herself for not saying “Yes you can, my dear! ”
Papa came rushing to Emily's room,
Tears come fleeing, escaping with a doom,
He’s now blaming himself,
“Baby I’m sorry! I should’ve given you attention,
For being away from home at work for long!”
And there’s Emily’s sister,
She sobs in fears; she’s blaming herself too,
“Emily, my loving sister, no matter how I screamed at you,
I should’ve said I am so proud of you!”
After Emily’s last rites,
Everyday, Mama goes to Emily’s room,
Lock herself in; weeping she screams.
Papa got depressed,
Her sister always gets into mess,
They keep blaming themselves,
Tears keep falling, tears and more tears,
Every day they wait for Emily to come back home…
Now tell me Emily,
Is it all worth it?
Devastation, guilt, hatred, sorrow and defeat,
That's all what they get,
That’s all what you get, poor Emily,
You let them ended up in gloom...
