Valli's blog 
If I die
each second in life,
Life is death...
If death seems
heavenly than life,
Death is life...
If all life is meant
for despair and grief, In suicide
I find calm relief....
P.s. Neither my sketch nor my words above encourage suicide. My intention is to portray the state of mind or feelings of a person who wants to commit suicide.

A moving piece, Valli. Touches a raw nerve!! Well penned...
No Valli...that's why we need to find our inner glow..and not bother about the external sources of light.. if we do that, life would always be beautiful..and in any case I have always believed even if life is not beautiful..still life is very beatiful....no I pray that one should never feel that weak..so as to take one's own life.. each day is a new sunrise..
Well I am here:

very powerful contemplative haiku ~ glad you are well ~~ thanks, ^_^ (A Creative Harbor)
I like the capture of suicide thoughts ~
However I thought it would have been more effective if you don't use life and death as it is too general for haiku writing. I suggest using a symbol to connote it. If I may:
bleeding wrists,
wilting white flower,
take my heart !
I hope you don't mind ~

That's amazing what you wrote!...I'll try to write haiku more effectively...Thanks for the suggestion :)...
You handled a tough subject quite well :-)
Well Portrayed! :)
This is ... I don't know how to say this ... a complete different angle in using the theme meaning. I think when someone's committing suicide it's very sad, but for the one who commits it it will be a relief. Thank you for sharing your haiku in this way.
Namaste

Very true, Thanks for the read :)
It frightened me at first, whew! Suicide is a bad word! Lucky thing you qualified the intentions! Nicely done, Valli!

It is a WOW...truly....
I may never encourage the thought of suicide but something somewhere must lead to it...if life is actually so despairing...maybe an end is all we look for...Brilliant...
Marvelously penned..liked it very much..actually it would hv been the mind set of those who commit it..
Never easy to justify suicide..
Perhaps, it's what they feel, to find the relief they seek.. but I agree with RS ji in one way.. we have to find the strength to stay alive..

Death is life..
