Suicide

[twitch]

Slightly old poem I wrote. Yes, I know it's rife with angst and no, I do not cut myself.

---

The razor leaves horrible scars
Time slows, and I’m seeing stars
Blood is pouring down my arm
My life is ending, with my self-harm
I’m growing frantic, my sanity breaks
I hope to dream, never to wake
At the funeral people ask why
Never knowing the tears I cried
Always behind a smile, they were easy to hide
I was the boy who was always alone
The boy who would hide, and always run home
No one took notice of my sorrow 'til the last
My horrible life, my horrible past

Very dreary, but all too true. It reminds me a lot of Supertramp's elegiac, haunting Rudy (on Crime of the Century)

Rudy's on a train to nowhere,
halfway down the line
He don't wanna get there,
but he needs time
...
Rudy thought that all good things
comes to those that wait
But recently he could see
that it may come too late.

All through your life, all through the years
Nobody loved, nobody cared.
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as I might, I can't hold back the tears
How can you live without love, it's not fair?
Someone said give but I just didn't dare.
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearing's alright for them that's all there
You'd better gain control now
You'd better show'em all now
You'd better make or break now
You'd better give and take now...

A powerful and thought provoking poem. It is beautifully written. I can feel the emotion through your words.
