Graphic poem about a suicide.
Jamie, oh dear Jamie
Your eyes are still so young,
But when you hold so still, my love
They start to look quite dull.

You're bleeding on the floor, dear
And the white tiles have turned red.
Oh Jamie, my dear Jamie,
You wanted yourself dead.

You ate and ate some more,
Cakes, mirrors, pies and lies.
It slowly turned to hate, though, dear,
For you forgot to feed your mind.

You were always very lovely,
But, darling, so confused.
You gave in with a shrug and a
"What else have I to lose?"

Please close your eyes, dear Jamie,
For you'll look around no more,
You've finally ate too much, my Jamie,
One pill, two pills, three pills,
Floor.
