I know that I have taken all I can take
I can feel myself wanting to break
I am left her sad, desperate, and alone
Why does she think my heart is stone
Why does she push till I can not bend
Until I just wish that it all would just end
Why does she keep me trapped in this cage
And then ask me why I'm filled with such rage
My anger is so strong I clench my fist
Until I plunge a knife into my wrist
Until I can feel the blood hitting the air
Until darkness engulfs me and I no longer care

Poetry: Suicide
I feel as though I'm drifting but not swimming
Sinking not staying afloat
Being pushed rather than voluntarily remaining still
Bullied
by Colin Ward
A dinner waits in the oven, dry as tinder sticks.
You hadn't come home for tea, at the normal time of six.
I gave you a few
by Daisy Breeze
Survival
The world span away
When the phone rang that day
Ears buzzed as he said
It's your turn.
So I rang for assistance,
And
Another Chance
I sat alone in my room,
holding the ultimate tool of my fate.
I'd been keeping it all inside,
forgetting to forgive
by Paul Curtis
WHAT?
What darkness
Leads a tortured soul
To break the bonds
Which hold us
Voluntarily
What illusion
So influences
A mind once so
