SELFISH

Just who is the selfish one
When someone suicides?
The one who just has passed
Or the ones they left behind?

The one just passed you see has gone
Amidst threats of Hell and strife
And feel eternity of hell to them
Is heaven to compared to this life

For the mourners who truly loved them
There's nothing you could have done
They knew and felt the love you shared
But with burdens were overrun

They're not selfish for having burdens
That are too much to bare
And leaving this world for another
Or leaving those with love to share

Realize that love will never die
Even though the body needs release
They've gone to a place of perfect love
And their souls are finally at peace

So go ahead and mourn and cry
But let them rest with serenity
Remember all the happy times
Join them in amenity

Just written today, I think this basically says it all. There are a lot of things that run through a persons mind before this decision is made, especially their loved ones. It's not an easy choice, but for some it is the only choice. Let them go. Allow them to rest peacefully, and become one with their gods and goddesses.
