Useless Romance Poem by rachel reed

im giving up on this useless romance.
there's no point in being crushed further and further into the ground.
the longer it goes on,
the deeper the cuts get.
i need to get used to the fact,
i never will,
never have been,
someone worth loving,
let along living.

theres no point in feeling this way,
when i could easily end it all.

that sounds so good.
just to end it now.
theres no point in living,
breathing,
cutting.
unless i make it happen.


lryics from the song 'the wax walls of an empty room' by still remains:
Room'
burn the candle down to the end. in darkness i can't find a reason to pretend. make me see things that i dont want to see. images of someone... who i used to be. this empty room is my companion. my empty heart gives me compassion. you gave all i have and ill never ask for anything from you. you gave all i have and i never wanted more. looking down, shards of glass beneath your skin. i cant stand to see it. a mirror takes my sin. hold my head close to your heart. i can hear it beating. is this where it all starts? show me your scars.
