Slipping Away

by BleedingAngel   Jun 7, 2006


I am slipping away again
Into a deep black hole
Captured by this depression
And it's eating away my soul

Can any one save me now
Please reach out a hand
How will you ever define
Something I don't understand

I am slipping away again
I gave into my damn blade
Please just take it away
Before I make another mistake

Haven't I bled enough now
Or felt endless pain
I tried to be strong
I tried not to go insane

I am slipping away again
Taking those pills I hate
I want to empty the bottle
So that my pain will fate

Don't I deserve to face death
For all the things I've survived
I just can't slip anymore
I can't live with another lie

I am slipping away again
Into an endless sleep
The pills are making me numb
No more will I ever bleed

Captured in depression
My blade has been buried now
No more existing through lies
I have killed myself somehow.....

*Sorry I didn't know how to end this*

    I feel like I've read this before. It's so similar to your 'Lost' poem. I like the repetition of:

    "I am slipping away again"

    It was a good technique to use. You say you didn't know how to end it, I would suggest the easiest thing would be to just repeat the first stanza at the end, maybe tweak the words here and there.

    Other than that, it does show the struggle of depression in all it's sadness. Good work. x
