The Act

It is an act for the weak
An act that depends on ultimate strength

It is an act for the cowardly
An act that requires extreme courage

It is act for the escapist
An act that faces the denial of self-preservation

But everybody has contemplated it.

It is an act for the uneasy
An act that offers eternal peace

It is an act for the sorrowful
An act that leads to unfathomable happiness

It is an act for the sufferer
An act that cures the incurable

But everybody is fearful of it.

It is an act for the selfish
An act that stems from distorted altruism

It is an act for the self-contradictory
An act that battles with the life instinct

It is an act for the thoughtful
An act that terminates every thought and action

But everybody has the potential to achieve it.
