The woods

I lay still
Hope, faith, love...
Everything is gone
I whisper in the dark
Why me?
What did I do to deserve this?
The words left me lifeless...

Some say life`s a game
Then I guess I did`nt know how to play
You may think it`s selfish
Maby it is...
But you don`t know the pain
After all
It was you who left me lifeless...

My wrists is laughing
Life`s draining
Blood`s spilling
In thickening streams on the floor
My eyes`s startin` to fade
Soon I`ll leave this place lifeless...

But suddenly
A change of mind
I try to turn
But it`s to late
My arms to weak
And tears burn my eyes
As the last drop leaves me lifeless...

All the tears I`ve cried
Useless...
And all the feelings I`ve felt
Useless...
And all the love I`ve shed
Useless...
And all the hope I had
Useless...
And every wish I`ve ever wished
Useless...

Everything is useless...
Now that all I am
is lifeless...

Feelings hit directly home, I've felt this way one too many times.  But never got to its vast existance.  Hopefully I will never get to that point, where I lie lifeless.  Good poem, nicely written.  Glad youre there to write it.  Much love, One love, PEACE
