Zee for Truemanity

My good friend's son decided to take his life two weeks before his twenty first birthday.


Ellie

What did you think when you saw all the people crying for you?
Did you think why now?
Why are they crying…when I no longer feel pain?
Do you not ask: “Do they not see what I saw! Do they also have no hope for humanity?”


Ellie

Do you think you had a monopoly on pain?
Do you not think your Mom passed a whole lot and survived!
Did you not think to ask her how she survived and why?
Did you not think that you would cause your family immeasurable anguish.


Ellie

Philosophy philosophy PHILOSOPHY

Just an excuse for not reaching out to others and saying “help me!”
What did you stand to gain by opting out without reaching out…
to those that love you


Ellie

With your sensitivity and reasoning power
You could have taken ……………ideas
NOT your pessimistic ideas
But ideas formed in order to change…
All that you saw that was hopeless!


Ellie

You did not know that thought brings about reality!
Were you too young to understand.. that the only reality is now?
Did you not understand that time is precious….
As you are to your family and those that love you.


As your Mom says:-
“Not a day goes by; not a day will go by without thoughts about you.”
Without longing for your presence
Without longing for the spark..
Wiped off your face
Your magical smile


All my love and caring….Zee
