My beginning

by xXx Expecting xXx   Mar 10, 2007


Wake up from a short night sleep

and wonder why god has given me my life to keep

I roll back over on my old, stained bed

And think way too many thoughts in my head

"Why am I still here? Why am I alive?

Why can't God kill me, Why can't I die?"

My alarm goes off, its time to move

Time to face the world, so much to prove.

I get up and wash my face

Then look at myself, I'm such a disgrace.

I'm a seventeen year old, ugly girl

I shouldn't be here, not good enough for the world.

I put on my clothes and grab my bag

As I head out the door, I hear people gag.

I put on my mask and force you to believe

That I am happy, just look at me and see.

Everyday I fake this, for seven hours

Sometimes I wish I had super powers.

I sit there and stare at the clock, waiting for the bell

"ding dong, ding dong" tells me I can go back to my hell.

I head home on my two feet

Halfway there is where we meet

Pretty blues eyes is what you had

But then I realized you were completely bad.

You handed me, an innocent child,

A sharp object to make me wild.

Then a small but pretty gun

A note attached saying "lets have fun"

I got home and I sat down

My face glistening with a frown.

Around about eight that night

I made a decision that would change my life.

I grabbed the gun and the blade

I made a slice and there I laid

On the hard but cold ground

Blood flooding all around

My moments are drawing to a near

I write my note and just lay it there

Twenty long minutes finally passed

Something came over me and I just laughed.

I grabbed the gun in my hand

Hoping when I pushed the trigger, I make a land

At around exactly nine

I put everything back into line

I stood up and turned on my song

"Welcome to My Life" on repeat, it wont be too long

I blare the song really, really loud

In time ill sing it on a cloud.

I put the gun in my mouth and I counted to three

Then pulled the trigger in side of me.

I'm now dead at exactly 9:35

September 5, 2007 is the day I began my life.

    I love clif hangers.. with a double edge of a meening to boot... but what gets me tweeked out is the fact that you could write a fictional write like this and still be detached from the severe meening of it.. is it the fact that it's so extreme and explicit that it's numbing? the whole time i was reading this i could feel nothing but pain and hopelessness... you really got your point across,,, powerful writing all in all..

    and thank you for reading my stuff

    This was a very nicely written poem, the organization was almost flawless and it also had a very neat rhyming scheme. While it had all this, it also portrayed a very vivid image in my head of what one might be going through, Very nice write and please keep up the good work... I saw you commented on my "poem" and i thank you for that, and sooner or later "he" will appreciate that you are trying to get in contact with him. If you can't now, just be patient and soon you will be able to. Email is a good idea, write what you are feeling and anything else that you think might help and send it, its the thought that will count... thanks and GOOD LUCK!
