Dont know why

by Bonnie Fowler   Mar 13, 2005


I don't know why I did it
I guess I couldn't take life anymore
I thought I was all alone in the room
I never heard you open the door
I had already made the cut
That decided to drain the life from me
I did it in an isolated room
For I did not want you to see
I did not cry when I sliced my wrist
My blood I willingly gave
For I knew that each and every slice
Would bring me closer to my grave
Then,I heard a long,strangled moan
When my world was about to turn gray
I looked and saw you standing there
And I could not tear my eyes away
In the moment I saw you watching me
I realized to late,I had a reason to live
Weekly holding out my bleeding arms
You rushed with the only care that you could give
Not once did your arms loosen around me
Your tears felt like rain upon my head
You cried and said "I'd be loved forever"
You held me until you knew that I was dead
I am sorry that I left you like that
And that you had to watch me die
But thank you for staying with me
And letting your image be the last one that reached my eye
