Yes, it is a great poem. What a clever gal she was.
What kept me from acting on the suicidal feelings when I had them was thinking of the effects on other people.
When I felt myself wanting to go ahead anyway was when I really knew I was in trouble. But I didn't. I ended up talking to my therapist about it and was actually glad he read me the riot act about it.
There is another side to come through to--I had many episodes of not believing that, but I am here now looking back, and glad to be able to do so.
