Mundane things you've missed

 If your suicide attempt failed

& you were here today
you would have seen more
& woken up to an extra 807 days...
2 Summers, winters, autumns & 2 Springs
Seasonal Changes, flower blooming,
The birds would still sing.

your heart would have beaten
80 million more times
Your door would still knock
& the bell would still Chime
The kettle would boil
& the spoons would still stir
your Cat would still Meow
& you'd have to hoover his fur
your guitars would be played
& your TV would be loud
your clothes on a chair in a
Crumped unfolded mound.

Your toothbrush would be damp
& your sink stained with water marks
you would have walked plenty more
times in your favorite park...

But none of this happened
It all stayed where it was left
your cat didn't understand
What was going on,
Or why you wept?


You could have reached out,
I Would have dropped
everything to come.
Life isn't that simple,
you died 46 years too young.
