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.......

knives, slicing, ouch.  This has got some pain behind it.  Very good poem, made me wince and cringe.

J, so much pain expressed here in so few words. Well Done  

Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive,
my body goes on, my spirit has died,
and I though alive, feel dead inside.
