My Life (post divorce and empty nest) in Sonnets
Jump
Original Contemporary Poetry by author, Jean Parr
"Jump”
What if I jumped out of despair?
Would anyone miss my compassion?
Would anyone care?
Would anyone even want my ashes?
Sometimes I want to die
I imagine how I would do it, pills would slowly stop my breath
I don't need a good-bye
I just want to blissfully surrender to death
Life is too hard
Too many people to please; what good does it do me to be well educated?
Very little support for someone like me, so scarred
Overwhelmed...acting is overrated
I have nothing
I am nothing
