Silent Pleads (villanelle)

by Heather M Craig   Apr 18, 2005


Rather unfortunately, it's about cutting, it popped in my head quickly so forgive me for the cliche. written for poetry class.

____________________________

I'm begging for your attention
with the slices on my wrist,
it's a call beyond my tension.

I'm looking into the eyes of the mirror,
the girl far beyond the darkest of souls
as I shred her flesh forming crimson tears.

Beyond the fake smiles and the mask,
I now portrayed and image of the insides
that each of you always looked past.

The blade understands my ways
as the pain inside slowly drifts away.
I'm calling on you for guidance, set me free!
I'm begging for your help, come rescue me!

    Honestly Heather, not as cliche as you may think! Of course the whole cutting subject is sooo over done, but what can you do! Inspiration is inspiration...lol! No really I liked it, but you have yet to write anything I don't like :) Holly
