staring at the knife i'm holding
sharp blade so temptingly appealing.
memories so haunting, torturing
i'm just dying, dreaming of escape.
moving the knife to my skin
its begging me to let it sink in.
Your degrading words always echoing
shame violently suffocating me to nothing.
can't fight the urge any longer
i cut, and for a moment I feel stronger.
blood dripping, i have my escape.
Emotions can cut like a knife... Yet they can also carry the soul on a journey like no other... Darkness is not the only shade of light... Beautiful poem...
I dont consider this a beautiful poem. Not in the slightest way. It is troubling really. I don't want you having those kinds of thoughts. I may not know you, or know what you've been through, but I know those thoughts are not healthy for you. Try Jesus. He can give u the good escape. Life, not death. It is well written, I won't deny that, but the subject matter... is troubling.
Wow, a so sad, yet so beautiful poem. A great write as always.
