unsold and untold
tent lines of temporary accommodation
make way for outdoor seating
the life and death of recovery.

Selfish Act - a poem by Ciaran Burke https://t.co/oN88x9wKyN

to cut
to strangle
smother
kill
a suicide if you will
to rebirth and live
again.

Of Loss - a poem by Ciaran Burke #loss #suicide #pietahouse #rip

A thread ⬇️ https://t.co/GMwuz8pkPy

left no evidence
nothing evident
nothing left
your pain is dead
we live your final hour
living in our thoughts.

You rest
rest in the peace
left pieces
pieces of life
not found in questions
nor in answers
no pieces left to find
may you find peace.
Ciaran Burke
