Sub-consciously,
The blade welcomes my fingertip,
Runs along the indented lines,
It aims to penetrate,
Blood bath.
But I guess it decides,
That it doesn’t need to bathe, to wash,
In the scarlet liquid.
I guess, absent-mindedly,
I climbed down,
And decided not to.
No, this isn’t heroics,
I only saved myself,
And,
No, this isn’t to be admired,
Adoration is for someone,
Who never got there in the first place,
But keeps on going,
Several maps later.
I guess this is cowardice,
I guess.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.

amazing...... just amazing

this is beautiful hollow..... this is far from cowardice.... the fact that you came back from the edge and wrote about it prooves you are a strong person.... hang in there, keep the words flowing and hold your head high coz u alive

live life as if your going to die tomorow....... but love as if your going to live forever......

NO, It's Not Cowardice, As Everyone Has Stated, Cowardice Is Going Through With It, And Actually Doing The Intended Deed, But You, You Stuck With Life, And Decided To Make The Right Coice, If That Is Cowardly, Than I, Myself Am A Coward Too.....You're Not Alone, Know That

All In All, The Poem Was Honest, And Beautiful, I Liked It ALOT
