Suicide
A silent tear rolls down
   down her tender cheek,
The thoughts go around
in her head
The same thoughts she's
   been having all week.

She sobs more, uncontrollably
  tears flood her eyes.
She remembers clearly
  the words he spoke
the stories he told
      the stories? or the lies?

If only she were at home
  and away from them all.
Away from the hurt
    and all of the pain
The voice in her head
  again he calls.

She cuts him off
  the voices are dead,
her mind goes blank
   and her eyes cloud over
the gun falls clumsily
away from her head.
