Poetry: Suicide

by Heather Adams

Created on: October 15, 2008

Hate is my life

Darkness is my future

I live eternity in the shadows

I'm afraid to speak my mind

I'm afraid someone will hear

My last bit of hope falls

It falls with my final tear

I thought you would be near and dear

but like my life, this is a lie

Thoughts of suicide replace my common sense

I know what I am about to do isn't smart

But who cares? Why not?

I hold the cold, hard, steel blade in my hand

Flip my wrist face up

Strike one! The blood starts to ooze

Strike two! I'm losing consciousness

Strike three! I'm out

No more pain

No more hate

No more fear
