My Heart and Soul

She handles the knife, thinking about her misery and unbearable strife. Thinking about her reputation that she conveys, the shameful image she portrays. Wanting to ease the pain, she slices away at her arm. Feeling that she is doing more good then harm, she goes deeper, slower, and prolongs the pain. Shes already used to the feeling, why not experience it again? She slits along the middle of her torso, in a fierce uncontrollable rage. Fondling the incision with a smile of contentment, she prys open her rib cage. Peering resentfully at her stillbeating heart, she ripped it out and the restitution began. She stabbed it once for letting her down in a time of need, it settled her burning sensation, to see her heart bleed. She reached into herself and pulled out her soul, she resented it with a vengance, for being so weak and confused. "If you were any stronger, I would not have been bruised, I would not have been abused." "I had to end my existence, and stop my misery, I blame you, my heart and soul, for putting me through this agony." With those words said she closed her eyes, there was much content in her dying. There was no sense in her existence...or even put a foot forth trying.

First of all, Welcome to Passions!! And second... That was unbelieveable! I can't express to you how much I felt every single word of that piece.  You are a great poet and I certainly hope to see more of your work.  The way you portrayed the pain and agony leaves me speechless.  I felt this much....

Fullest symapthy to that person, however, forum rules don't allows poems of self harm or any violence like cutting. Great as this poems is, it might be removed...
