I

 

Life is a story;

don’t fear the semicolons,

write your next chapter.

 

 

II

 

Life is beautiful;

semicolons symbolize

a new beginning 😉

 

 

III

 

Life can get ugly;

the most feared punctuation

is like suicide.

 

 

IV

 

Let’s put a semi –

colon in the story; for

suicide support.

 

 

V

 

The untold story;

suicide prevention and

the semicolon.

 

 

VI

 

Let’s break the stigmas;

the most feared punctuation

is misunderstood.

 

 

VII

 

The semicolon;

the beginning of the end,

a life not ended.

She Was Beautiful

bulimia, mental health, suicide prevention awareness

She was beautiful;

intelligent and witty,

and a tad bit giddy.

Her ideologies were wonderful.

 

She was traveling with a book when I met her.

She was a bookworm and I was a lame with cool tendencies

and we tended to be

on the square within the same circles together.

 

She was beautiful – radiant skin, brilliant pearl white teeth, and pretty feet.

I thought she was a vegan, I noticed she didn’t eat meat;

she would have a soup or a salad whenever we would meet.

 

How did I not notice, she was preoccupied with her shape & weight amid her cuteness?

I guess; I was preoccupied with her beautiful mind and her cuteness.

She was beautiful – and bulimic; I never knew bulimia distorted her mental acuteness.

“How should I do it?”

“Should I write a goodbye note?”

I’m glad you called me!

Call someone today…

One conversation can change

a life. Love Conquers!

 

III

 

Text someone today…

You never know who needs you

on the other end.

 

IV

 

“How are you doing?”

may be the lifeline someone

has been waiting on.
