Someone you loved committed suicide.
Write a speech you would say at their funeral, or whisper to them into the air. It doesn't matter.

His history-

I see my mother fill out my medical forms.

Weight- 90 pounds.

Height- 5'1

History of suicide in the family- yes.

I was never properly told who it was, but I know. My father's younger brother. An uncle I never knew. "He died when he was a teenager" my grandparents said. But my father never talks about it. My aunt said they were close. But dad doesn't say a word.

I want to know.

And I know nobody would say it at his funeral, but I would have said as I looked at my uncle's corpse-

"Good for you. You were brave enough to escape."

Maybe if I knew him I would say something different, but he died before I was even born, so there's no helping it.

I hope you died quickly.
