Drowning in my Sorrow.

by herbert mitchell aka Jr   Feb 22, 2005


Sending my letters to you through the sea....
They never make it across or get lost and float back to me.

I love you is a very powerful phrase...
But when i say it to you, I'm never afraid.

Strength is my weakness when fear to me doesn't exist
Until the day you left me for him and i sliced both my wrists

My suicide letters are always ignored
People assume i only write them because i get bored

But the day they see me on the floor gasping for air
Will be the day you all remember the times you didn't care

All the happy faces and fake smiles you get from your "friends"
Where are you now when my life's throbbing to it's end?

It's like I'm drowning with people staring and no one jumps in
Those fake smiles mean nothing when you're not a true friend

It doesn't take a scientist to identify why i cry and swallow my own tears
Because it's my heart slowly melting from all the pain backed up for years

This girl told me she loved me more than life itself
She then met another guy leaving me alone all by myself

I don't write these poems for all of the attention incase some of you may wonder
I write them so i don't do something stupid like commit suicide and die and become 6-feet under

Happiness is a curse with miserable side effects.
In the end, all the times you were happy, will be all the times you regret

So many people telling me so many lies
Like the girl who supposedly loved me forever, just told me goodbye. :(
