Sinner Not A Saint


I’m sick of all this I can’t take anymore
I’m cold, wet and alone lying on the bedroom floor
I’m fed up with life and its delusional lies
My word is no longer good enough I am no longer wise.

What if I never awoke, maybe it would be easier and I’d feel no more pain
But if I linger here on earth I just might drive everyone insane
I’m abused and upset I can’t fight away the shame
And I know that I can’t continue to take your blame

Sit here with me and sing me to sleep
Hold my hand a stay with me while I weep
Help me fade away into the night
So I wont be noticed in the sunlight.

A tormented angel has had enough
She can no longer survive the pain she’s in its all just too tough
So as a white casket is buried in the ground
Think of that girl, who will no longer make a sound
Her long brown hair shines like wet paint
For she was a sinner and defiantly  not a saint

i agree with rhia, it sounds better simple. i was very pleased, you were better than i thought you would be and not as "emo" "goth" whatever you would like it to be called.

If you read just the last two lines It sounds better without the word "definately" but if you read the whole last stanza as a whole on the intended pace then It needs that word to make the rhythm just right.. so it all depends on how you read it.. great job on this poem..
