Give me release

by katie!   Feb 27, 2006


Sadness overwhelming, nothing on my mind
Searching for something, don't know what I'll find
Walking through the ages, depression on my head
Longing for redemption surely I'd be better off dead

Cheeriness I look for, whilst looking happy upon a map
Feeling nothing but hurt, pain every single day
Must be something better somewhere
Surely there is another way?

What is living if not death?
Hatred drawing away my last breath
No dreams, no interests, no obsessions
Living in a shell which is depression

Haunted by people who slit their throats
I watch in terror as blood pours down
Constant lonliness, I miss being alive
Nothing to live for, no reason to strive

Insanity takes me, grinds me into the ground
Screaming in silence, making no sound
I'm dying in life, yet living in death
Please be merciful lord, take my last breath

Give me release, a world without hate or pain
Where I can be normal, not f**king insane
I want to see something beautiful, no longer see blood
I want to feel something amazing, not hate in a flood

    5/5 WOW!! this was amazing, I loved it how you contradicted some words, "Insanity takes me, insanity grinds me into the ground
    I'm screaming in silence, making no sound
    I'm dying in life, yet living in death
    Please be merciful lord, take my last breath" well, I loved the whole poem, but there is just something in this phrases. Great job!!!!!
