Be My Escape.

by christina marie   Apr 28, 2006


With my hands on the wall,
I am ready for this fall.
With these wrists, how they bleed,
And I am down on my knees.

With the blade on the floor,
And a suicide note pinned to my door.
I am ready for good-bye.
I am ready to die.

With these tears down my face,
With my heart beat's fast pace.
I am scared to my wits,
I am terrified to do this.

So good-bye to my mom,
And daddy, I didn't belong.
Say farewell to my brother,
And to all of the others.

Say good-by once again,
Say good-bye to my friends.
Rest myself against the door,
I don't want to be here anymore.

Take the blade, once again.
And maybe this pain will start to mend.
'Cause this pain, I can't take.
And death, please, be my escape.

    I really like this poem..You took such an over-used and uncreative topic, and made it really original and it didn't seem over-used at all.

    Great job, it's 1 of a kind.

    I also like the ending poem, it leaves a big thought with me that I'll probably be thinking about for a while.
