ThomasA Poem by Thomas Emile VaughenContent warning: poem touches upon thoughts of suicide
Today I came home to a note on the table...
A stagnant white sheet, like a dizzy cloud And it said: "I've packed my bags, and I'm long gone. My car hit the road - and every mile I drive, is a mile further from you. You're not all to blame; it just hasn't been the same - so don't be too harsh on yourself, K? Cause I know you're a bundle of fears - you know your inadequacy like the back of the hands (you said you'd never beat me with) - and I wonder if your tears are already trickling down, like the rain on those silent Sundays, mundane." Looming overhead, before I go to bed There's a storming brewing like I ain't seen before And I look to the noose; ask God if he's angry... well we'll certainly find that out very soon
