The death of love (previous relationship), makes the girl really want to die. The morbid poem then discovers her contemplation of suicide until she finally....die!

what about killing a troll

An old beatnik who died and was reincarnated as a black alley cat. The alley cat is now 17 years old,He's a proud Tom-Cat, a scarred veteran of many fights for mating privileges and has escaped death from the jaws of many dogs. He's just been struck by a police cruiser and lays , dieing in the gutter. What does the panorama of existence that flashes before his slowly glazing eyes mean to him?

well death is the most common but not the darkest
i would say
how a soul can be lost, lonly and broken
in death knowing that is the end it has some comfert to it
but when you read something that has no hope in it
it starts to tap in everyones fears
good luck and surch ur dark world and u will find it
