Too late

by crystaljean88   Feb 8, 2008


I don't understand the hate.
Whats the reason for my fate?
I need to relax and be who i am.
But it seems no one even gives a damn.
Wishing someone would love me,
So my soul can feel free.
Broken hearts and hurtful tears,
Thats my suffering through the years.
Its nothing easy to take care of,
Especially the child i had from above.
Being a single moms kills me slowly,
Although I cant find anyone to want me.
Love is nowhere in sight,
This life is getting harder to fight.
No more tears or screams of pain,
Just take the razor across my vein.
No longer do i want to be here,
My life is to damn sever.
Take me away from all the hurt.
Cut me so my blood will squirt.
Watch me fall as i slowly die,
Don't let me see a tear from your eye.
You didn't care before so don't act now,
Don't even ask the question "how"
I asked for help many times before,
But to late now cause I'm dead on the floor.

    wow. that was a powerful ending...

    I hope I helped. I'm not familiar with your style, so most of the edits are probably pointless...

    Keep going at it, dear. Keep moving forward.
