I kill myself
Everytime I wake up
To see reality
Smack me down again
When I see
The blood gushing
From my skin
I get this little
Sick, twisted thing
My brain takes a turn
Down a dead
End road
My life so
Tragically, yet
Great gone
Torn from my own hands
The blood is on my fingers
"Take a new turn"
I tell it
"Go off now
To where you belong"
Flesh crawls away
With it
Only a pile of bone
And a mind which
Is vacationing
Somewhere
In the Bahamas

To anyone who reads this, please understand that I was not in the "right" mind when I wrote it. In fact, I was far from there. So, I'm sorry if it may seem weird, but I do like it. So there!

I like the rapid-fire imagery. Being "in the right mind" is over-rated sometimes.

Nice work.

WOW! This piece of writing was very intense and seems like something I would of written when I was suicidal. Thanks for sharing it!
