And Lost...

Suicide

There lied
One night
A husband weeping
After finding his wife sleeping
Sleeping merrily in the arms
Caught, lost soul, to another man's charms
And sighed
Of sight
He could not know
In his heart of hearts layed low
And yet should he not confront her?
But frozen, his heart torn asunder
It came
That day
When she arose
After suffering a night full of throws
Throws her husband found to reason
When he sought from her of this treason
And shame
To say
She could not tell
Yet he was the one going through hell
Both stricken with a loss of love
Fell silence that they could make nothing of
Her soul
It cried
She shed no tear
Knowing not what most to fear
And the man who, himself, teared free
Searched his heart but failed to see
The hole
She lied
In granting no truth
For she knew that he held all proof
A hole now growing in his heart
And, out of words, he could not start
She fled
But what
Without destination
She wanted not to hear his presentation
Caring only for her pain
Hoping she would not show the strain
And led
Door shut
Up to her room
To find a place no thoughts would loom
Retreating from a silent evil
This is when she found the needle
But man
Now found
In solitude
Wished himself a new attitude
Falling from melancholy to worse
He could not make his feelings disperse
She ran
With sound
To fetch the pin
Displaying a simple fateful grin
The pin, fashioned for a hat
But she had found a new use for that
All thought
In flury
He must now go
She meant the world to him he'd show
Show her in a feat of precision
Off to find an instrument to make the incision
She sought In hurry
Onto trhe balcony
She lofted the pin and fell to knee
The shame she wished not to know
She truly loved him, this she'd show
In haste
He too
Had found the key
To rid him of this wretched tragedy
Both plunging at the same instant
So that even their marks be found consistent
There traced
From two
A thin red line
That caught the sun and began to shine
Both finding themselves in equal pain
Had chosen to end it one in the same
