End It All

by LostWords   Sep 8, 2012


My mind is a prison,
thoughts bounce and echo off walls.
The colors are too loud.
Frequent grips of my hands
in desperation for escape.

There is a constant film playing
in my mind of chaos.
The scene as same as I.
Yet, the person across always changes.
Trying to close out the vividness
to a dull static of thought.

Everything hits me full force
like a freight train with no brakes.
The sounds, the colors,
the realization that I haven't escaped.
I haven't even moved a muscle.
Am I choosing to stand in
the way of utter destruction?

Pushing and rolling me over,
my limbs separate with a tight pull.
Feeling the blood drain from
my eyes, my ears, my once
whole and deceived body.
A bright light slams down on reality.

Am I choosing one or the other?
I don't want either one to feel
the pain I consume each time.
It drags me violently away
into the screaming silence of Hell.

My choice is simple,
I'd rather stand in front of the train.

    When I read your poem, my mind was filled with visions of a young girl screaming silently in agony and praying that all pain will end. However when she couldnt take the hurt and struggle anymore, she would choose to rather end her life.
    I really enjoyed reading this as I can honestly say that I can understand. :)
