Wanting to live is not a sin

by jennifer   Jul 11, 2006


One quick slash across the wrist and is all done
All the pain and the emptiness of my life is done
maybe when am dead my family can sit and count my marks
and realize the hell i lived inside
maybe people can really see how dead certain people really are
maybe they realize they helped make each and every one of those marks
I know you might think I am selfish
but how much more selfish are those that trapt me inside
Feeling like I have to escape I had no other choice but to run and hide
pick up drugs to escape and in that their is no pride
I know you will say that I am not strong enough but the bravest thing I have ever did was put an end to my life
as I drag the boxcutter over my wrist My one thought is \'\' yes the journey is amost done\'\' I know people will morn me but if they really loved me they would be happy
after all i was always invisible in their eyes
always trapt always dead in the inside
now I have finally set my self free
alone so I just can be me

    This is a really sad poem, but it's really good. There are a few grammatical errors, but not too many-- I can tell that you put your heart into this; there's a lot of emotion in each line of this piece---Great write 5/5
