Chatfield shares in the piece titled "The Suicide",
"If only you had trusted me
And let me lean on you
If only you had listened
When I had so much to say
If only you had held my hands
When they did shake and tremble
If only you had kissed me
When I felt so sick and sinful
If only you had cried with me
When I was deeply hurt
And let me rest my throbbing head
Against your sturdy chest
If only you had stayed with me
When I felt so all alone
And shared with me some precious times
To pass away the hours
If only you had prayed with me
And told me what to do
And if you had but studied me
You'd know that I was blue
If only you had been with me
These last black velvet hours
Then you and you and you and you
Would not be bringing these flowers."
