an akward state of mind

0 posted 2003-05-17 10:53 PM



Fourteen I sit,
Wishing I were five,
Dreaming of childhood,
When I was alive.

I’ve reached the climax.
The action has passed.
The storyline is almost over,
It went way too fast.

Knife to my wrist,
Not exactly sure why,
To release the pain?
Or intending to die?

I begin to slice,
And I still don’t know,
In what state I’ll be
At the end of the show.

Deeper I cut,
The red drips now stream,
I’m too afraid to keep quiet,
But too brave to scream.

My tears were once clear,
Now red with the blood,
I’m drowning in this
Sickening lifeless flood.

So I guess I’ve decided,
Or the hand with the knife has,
These uncontrollable sobs
Will soon be my last.

Well the sitcom is over,
The tears are shed,
The credits are rolling,
As I lie here dead.

Too late for apologies.
If you could only see
The constant sadness
You mounted on top of me.

So now I am gone.
I never saw the light.
The show has ended,
Goodbye and Goodnight.

I liked this, but I don't know if the moderators will...It was descriptive, and it flowed well. Good job.

I can honestly say that that was one of the best poems I have ever read in my entire life. I don't even know what else to say. This was an awesome write, and it's going in my library.
