• Death Without You - Poem

    Trigger warning: suicidal ideation 

    You keep me alive 

    I don't want to survive 

    Its death without you 

    No grieving 

    No funeral 

    Its death without you  

    Only here because you are. 


    If you go 

    Its death without you  

    No sad songs,

    No therapy 

    Its death without you 

    Life doesn't go on 

    Its death without you 

    Whatever is on the other side 

    We'll find out 

    This world is too ugly without you 

    Its death without you 

    Theres one option 

    Theres only death without you

    July 2026 update - I wrote this about my sister years ago when we were both struggling with suicidal ideation. We are in A&E today due to her rapidly declining mental health. My mental health is declining as well.

    She wants to live and I'm ready to die.

    But there's no me without her. And I won't think twice about it. Energy never dies.
