A theory exists that Yesenin's death was actually a murder by NKVD agents who staged it to look like suicide.
The farewell poem of Yesenin, written in his own blood.
Goodbye, My Friend, Goodbye
Goodbye, my friend, goodbye.
My love, you are in my heart.
It was preordained we should part
And be reunited by and by.
Goodbye: no handshake to endure.
Let's have no sadness — furrowed brow.
There's nothing new in dying now
Though living is no newer.
