The world in which we live

by dragonfly   Feb 27, 2005


I'm afraid of being exposed. But maybe I already have. Maybe thats why I'm in this damn place. In this cage that I've built around me.I'm alone with my blade. My arms a canvas I carve my pain. I live in a world of hatred. This hell that I put myself in. A world of drinking, sexual assault, and abuse. A world in which the only way to solve a problem is ones own blood. Insanity breaks out causing ones ownself to bang their head against the wall, blade in hand. Silent screams echoing in the distance. Soft tears fall to the floor. Theres only one way to escape this hell, suicide. So many choices, dangle from a rope, pull the trigger in your hand, fall from up high, or watch your blood run dry, Whichever you chose it will be your deeply needed suicide.

I'm not sure if this is really a poem. But either way please rate it.

    This is a very powerful, "In-your-face" kind of poem. I liked the style of writing, though I am not a fan of suicidal/cutting poems. But nevertheless, it's a very expressive poem, and it really displays your hurt and anger, some of which I could feel myself...it's important to be able to reach out to your readers like that.

    A poem is a string of words or sentences that mean something to someone so yes it is a poem to you. Secondly I felt moved, depressed, agitated and sickened by your words. Those feelings are all in a good way although the subject matter makes me feel a little ill. You seem to have experienced something so horrendous and I hope that you find the peace that you desire without having to carry on cutting. You have a way with words that would be better for you to focus all your energies on - just my opinion but I would say keep it up xx
