Suicide IS murder,
not an attention claim,
suicide is to leave,
and never to return again,
suicide is final,
thats it end of game,
but there is always a reason,
to end your own life,
by means of gun shot or knife,
there IS always a reason,
to fly above the clouds,
when your spirit forms in dark shrouds,
the reason is the human race,
and the way we discriminate,
speak out with all the anger we generate,
we do it without thinking,
of what the consequences might be,
the way in which other people see,
so negligence murder it is,
so a life sentence it should be,
because suicide is murder,
but it's whats better for me.

I'd agree with the sentiment and concept of suidice is murder. From personal experience having had a father who killed himself, the destruction left on those around was a permenant error and resultant from an entirely selfish act on the part of the suicidee. He did have a good reason but still insufficient for its finality; and would have been better off doing something about it here on earth. So the expression in the last line is immense. Great poem, there's a whole disscusion here. Few typos and spellings obviously need looking at. Jim

Thank you for your comment Jim,and i'm sorry for your father.I don't have personal experience of suicide but can understand that it is not something that you can just forget. Hopefully i have cleared all of the spelling errors, spelling never has been my strong point. Andrew

I hope you aren't feeling suicidal. It is always a rushed thing done on impulse I think. Take time to think and count your blessings. There is always something better around the corner !.

No i'm not feeling suicidal, i wrote this to prove to others and myself that suicide isn't always a selfish act although it can be, also i wrote it because i was suicidal once and i got a lot of stick for it so this is to show those people that suicide is often cause by people and perhaps even sociaty itself.
