Funeral Blues

Recommended Posts

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message She is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

She was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good

WH Auden


I'm sure that WH will forgive me for changing the "He" to "She", especially seeing as though i lost a friend today. I'll never understand why someone who's beautiful, talented, friendly and just so much goddam fun to be around wanted to end it all.

I'll miss you Heloise, i hope you find what you were looking for angel. :(

I don't know you or the friend you lost. I just wanted to say I'm sorry for the pain you and the family are having to deal with. May the memories keep you smiling.

Also remember you do have a circle of friends here on DZ.com to talk to if you need us. Be strong my friend.
If I stand on my tip toes, I can see the weekend from here!

It's very, very hard to understand if you haven't been there yourself. Unfortunately, I do understand, having been there for many years.

Heloise has found what she was looking for...and she is resting peaceful now.

It's so hard to be the ones left behind in this; suicide is not easily dealt with, and if you (or anyone) needs an ear, I'm never farther away than the keyboard.

And that offer goes to anyone who is at the end of their rope - reach out one more time; there are people who do understand the dark. There are people who do know what it's like to live on the edge of the abyss. There are people who understand the issues you're facing...and can help. So reach out one more time, just one more time...

Peej, you and Heloise are in my prayers. I am so sorry for your loss.

Ciels-
Michele

Thanks for your support, condolences and love guys - last night was extremely hard, but it made a big difference. There are a lot of very upset and confused people around me right now, a lot of them even closer to Heloise than i was, i'll be showing them this thread and letting them know that there are good vibes from everywhere. Thanks again

Babe ....

I am soo sorry to hear that! Having gone through that my self I can only offer big shoulders and promises of limitless wine, lots of hugs ..... they never realise the pain they leave behind nor can we comprehend the absolute despair they felt which lead them to such a terrible end.

Prayers for you, Heloise, her family and friends xxxx
