collaboration with a Jake (my neighbor), ill let you figure out which verses belong to which person.


Caught up in a pain I should
never have experienced
bound and gagged thrown in
the hands of unmerciful men
beaten and stroked
by the hands of an angel
Thoughts of sin race through my mind
let me die, the pain is unbearable
talk me through it
don't leave me all alone
its been a year and a month
since you killed yourself
its been a year and a month
that i changed my mind
leave me alone
I don't want anyone anymore

It's been a year since I lost you
I know she died but why have you
left me to dangle in the wind
Regina, come back to me
your tortured look makes me want
too weep for all you have lost
It has been a week since you
last scard your arms
It has been 3 years since you truly
have smiled
Why won't you let me help?
God only knows she was my bestfriend too


Can't you leave it alone
she's dead i'm not
she pulled the trigger i was too scared
It hasnt been so long since i  smiled
i smiled just today
All i want you to do is bring her back
so i wont feel dead.

Regina & Jake

If you only understood my pain then maybe you could learn to be my friend. Be there. My crying shoulder. The smiles. And the caring i need to survive.

Ina, that was awesome.  Very touching.  I loved it.  You sort of make me want to cry. I know how you feel though.

Someone once taught me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as you like yourself.  That's what I live by.

Wow! Well, I came here just for a second, saw your poem and read it. Now I have to leave depressed. Regina, that was a very nice poem, and extremely sad. It's hard losing someone to suicide, I have been there. Great poem and I hope you are doing OK

Wow, Regi.  Very powerful... had to sit a while to think about this one.  Hit hard... I hope all is well with you.  It sounds like you're going through trying times, unless thats just the type of poetry you always write.  I hope that's the case.  I think the first verse is yours... that was my first guess.  Tell me if I'm wrong, though   Awesome work.  I really enjoyed this one..

Pretty powerful, i enjoyed this one. If you ever figure out the title then you should tell me hehe. These  untitled letter thingies dont make sense....well not to me. Anyhow, well done!

Holy crap! Amazing piece here and a truly magnificant collaboration between the two of you. It's such a sad piece. My favourite part would have to be the third section.

"All i want you to do is bring her back
so i wont feel dead."

What a great ending. You should be really proud of this, Regi for you have done yourself proud.
