I could take a knife And slit my open wrists Then slowly watch my wasted life Drip down my tight clenched fists Or perhaps a loaded gun A bullet in my head Would end the life I have begun To leave me cold and dead Maybe an overdose Of some deadly drug or pill But it might leave me comatose And would not surely kill I could set the house ablaze And perish in the fire To end my future days In a funeral pyre May be a rope to hang myself And swing broken from a tree Leaving behind lost wealth And keep my own for me Perhaps a jump from someplace high Would finsh me once and for all To leap into an empty sky To float and then to fall Or wade into the ocean And let it steal my last breath Like tides of despaired emotion That was all that I had left Or perhaps deprivation Of anything to drink or eat And let thirst and starvation Slowly cease my heartbeat Maybe an end quite violent Would be the best way for me And spend my last day in a current Of harsh electricity But there's always the easiest and worst of ways I could fall in love again And spend the rest of my dying days In bitterness and pain. |

so often do people think of suicide, but the way you express it is in such detail that it truly opens my eyes about the whole thing. i'm sure everyone has joked about taking their own life before, and never really thought of it like this. i truly think this piece of work is a real view of the suicidal's mind. and i hope, for the sake of losing a wonderful poet on this forum, this is not describing what is running through your mind. ![]() -SS |

I know what it's like to want to die, and end all feelings, because of a broken heart. Falling in love once more seems like an impossibility, not becuase I am attached to him still, but becuase I am too afraid of getting hurt. But ending it all doesn't just end all your pain, it creates more for others. I swore to myself never to hurt someone as much as I have been hurt in my life and to end it with the slice of a knife would be more harmful then good. Along with silver, I hope that with our words, and the knowledge that every member is here to listen to your pain and help you through it, that you will be able to make it.. ![]() ------------------ ~The price of finding love is to eventually lose it. When I wish on a falling star, I wish not for material goods but to show kindness to others and be content with what the world may offer me~ ~Maitay Mirabel Litton~ |
