Poem Commentary

I originally submitted this poem under the title of "Suicide". However when checking for spelling errors from the bottom up I realized this poem actually reads well from the bottom up.....so I reversed it.  I started with the last paragraph and and worked my way up.

SUICIDE REVERSED

People cammit suicide everyday
Not knowing, not caring in any kind of way
People live without any kind of soul
They don't care; there's no dread
They don't realize they're the walking dead

If you commit suicide I will not attend
For life is worth living I will not pretend
That you were a person whom was dear to me
For through your foolishness I will forsee

People commit suicide when felt life's not worth living
For life without love is not worth giving
A cold heartered person is not worth the pain
A mean cruel soul is not worth the gain

We walk the earth for this is true
But are we alive or dead in all that we do
Suicide is not just cutting a vein
Or hanging yourself or dying in vain

Wrong decisions can lead the way
To a life which is dead where you cannot stray
You find yourself on your knees one day
Praying to God for a reason to stay

But Suicide is committed everyday
By people you don't realize pass your way
You can kill yourself and not even know
You can kill yourself as obstacles grow

Suicide defined as taking a life
Not from another but ones self in strife
Suicide is seen as a cowardly scheme
To give up on life without self esteem

Have you ever wondered why people decide to die
Did they regret
Did they ever cry
If a note was not left, you may never know why
