The silence pierces me,
As I sit in this darkness,
Cold reaching all around me,
Knifelike fingers plunging,
Wickedly entangling themselves,
In my broken soul,
Cutting me to pieces,
And slicing away,
My final sliver of hope,
Alone I am,
My wounded heart pleading,
To stop thudding,
Inside my empty chest,
I envite death,
I challenge death,
I scream to death,
To sweep over me,
And numb my pain,
So I can end,
And finally fade away.......

I've laid in bed so many nights and had these very same thoughts. I hope things get better for you.

Dear SD,

Thanx for your reply - this poem is one that I wrote a long time ago but because of some things that are happening for me now I read it and decided to post it. You say you've shared the same thoughts huh? I hope that you also feel good and not crappy : )

well, I don't scream for death, I hang on to life too much for that. I have a different reflex when things get that bad, I just pretend they aren't and bury the yesterdays, but I recognize the agony, and I too hope things are better for the both of you

I hope that whatever the problem was/is...you're seeing life a little differently and I smile a wry smile here..:-)

Big hugs though..You can borrow my ears anytime but I warn you, I shall probably try to make you smile..

HUGS

Only once in my life have I begged for death. Since that time I have clung to life and hope. I understand the pain in your words. There is always hope...always. Anytime you need an ear please feel free to use mine.

Dear ILoveIt,

Thanx for your reply.I too used to bury things and bottle up my feelings but I did it for so long that I can't do it anymore. Now I am trying to deal with things and writing dark poems like this helps me to get those feelings out.

Dear RainbowGirl,

Thanx for your reply. The poem was written quite some time ago but I read it last night and decided to post it cause I'm having a hard time with something at the moment. Thanx for your support - I will be OK : )

Thanx for your reply Marilyn,

The poem is old but I thought I'd post it cause I'm going through some not so nice stuff at the moment - I'm OK though. What you wrote was very sweet - thankyou.
