Trouble: a poem (not mine!)

Read this just now in The New Yorker, August 11 & 18 issue, and immediately wanted to share it with Kevin. Anyone who's ever wanted to die and doesn't now will understand.

Trouble, by Matthew Dickman )

this is the first time I've experienced this poem. As someone who lives with suicidal taps to the shoulder (as a friend once put it) I was (am) very moved.
Knowing how beautiful a relationship can be, even with the dust of misery shrowding thoughts, I thank you for sharing this. And sharing Kevin's struggle/s as well.
You are both so dear to me.
