Easy way out

[Queen of Rain]

Easy way out

In the morning a woman darkens
her newborn baby
and a cry no longer is
after that moment of too much sounds;
Lost laughter kisses music dreams
In that grey apartment
with second-hand furniture

She is no one special
Just one of those Alone.

Oh something so fatal
Could be so easy
Like the father leaving without a note
Just like her own

At five in the morning
life is hard to stand
Mistakes happen so easily
So easy one can end a life
So easy life could end her dreams

Oh dreams can end a life.
They were her wings
that could not be used.
Their heaviness makes her drown
Confusion
And the easy way out
On that balcony with her now so silent baby
the sounds are louder than ever
and she decides to try
Her disabled wings

I think it was really good, it was a well-used topic but somehow your poem was refreshing, different from the other angsty poems.

I didnt plan to end it with suicide actaully, but I found no better ending to bind this poem together with as it fits wiht both the wings and how easy it is to end a life... I really tried to make it well-hidden so one has to analyse to find out about the suicide.. but ill have to work on that.. glad u i liked it

[darkangel]

It was sooo beautiful for a topic of such sorrow. I just have one question and this might seem so stupid but was the baby already dead? you mentioned "her now so silent baby" and I was just wodnering is the baby asleep or dead

[Queen of Rain]

she kills it in the first stanza... acually i wudnt say this poem is about suicide, cos for me its jsut about broken dreams and families... and about that psychosis that sometimes happens to new mothers that makes them kille their children, to me that is sth very interesting to write about as it becomes very symbolic,
