Okay this is a really dark and sad poem. So if you're fain-hearted I advise you not to read this. Um please comment and tell me what you think, I'd really like the feedback!

A gasp erupts

From my dry mouth

As my heart clenches in want

The want, the need to be with him.


I cry myself to sleep every night

As the pain in my heart dulls

For the pain I inflict

On myself.


My life

That had been hell

Has finally gotten so bad

That I am driven to this.



My only comfort:

A blade and a voice

The blade offers freedom from this world

While the voice keeps me here and comforts me, loves me, cares about me.


As metal tears through flesh

I cry rivers of sadness, of blood

Not knowing what choice to make



Leave this world and pain behind

Or stay with him and make it through this pain

I don't know what choice to make

or what to do



As bright crimson blood

runs down my arm in streams

I cry in pain and sadness

knowing that this could take me away from what could help me.


It could take me away

from a gentle hand

and soothing voice

that could save me from my painful fate.
