The Jumpers Who Jump to Their Deaths

So sad some people take their lives by jumping
off high places like buildings and bridges.
So sad things get so overwhelming that they
feel they cannot go on,
that death is preferable to living.
And on my God what a terrifying way to go
out of this world.
Imagine the terror on the way down, knowing
you are going to be broken in pieces when
you hit the ground with the force of hundreds of feet.
It is my fervent hope that when they die they land
in an afterlife where all those torments will vanish,
where they will be peaceful and happy forever.

Bob Boyd
