My aunt lost to depression and comitted suicide. i couldnt understand why she would ever but now im so familar to the feelings she continuosly fought with. I tried to see through her perspective. i thought about what her last moments must have been like. i would like to write more about it but this is all i have so far. ( i just said "i" about 47 times) i also posted this in teen but it also is dark poetry so im not sure if i shouldreally be posting it agian.


As the blade cuts  
soothing sensations
start flowing through my body
killing this hate
killing this pain
killing this numbenss

replaying the memories
opening the wounds
bleeding the cured

A little deeper
the pain pulses
the sensation grows
suficing the monster inside
quieting her cries


have any advice about revision id liked to hear them.
*need help with structure*

"replaying the memories

Very nice wordplay here.
I like the way you pieced this poem together.
I cant believe I missed this poem.
I myself still suffer from depression as anyone that has read my work can tell.
So I understand more then you know where this piece is coming from. Nice work.

Also a poem comes from you. It comes from inside. Although people can post weather they like your poem or they don't. The structure and style that you choose to write with is your own. Like a finger print. So dont worry about what others think your structure should be. Because that is there "finger print" in the poem world. Not yours. Be proud of your work and keep them coming.
