Death Was The Answer

Death Was The Answer

There I lie
in the corner of a dark room,
in a puddle of blood.
My wrists are slit,
my mind is spinning.
I am so scared
and so dizzy.
I searched and searched
for an easier escape,
I found nothing but death.
So I took my chances,
I wanted to feel the pain.
So I slit my wrists.
The room went gray
and spun in circles,
tears fell down my face.
I didn’t want to say goodbye,
all I wanted was out.
The matter was in my hand,
The knife fell,
and my world went clear.

~You know sometime depression hits you more than you can handle and all you want is death. Death really wasn't the answer but gawd how I wish it was.

    i know how you feel and I'm sure a lot of other people do too-This was great and emotional-I'll keep reading now...but keep it up-and I hope you get better-But I like this quote "Every story has a happy ending, so if you're not happy, it's not the end" (the people that kill themselves or hurt themselves choose for that to be the end but it wasn't the one that was intended for them, time heals all wounds)

    i have too felt these feeling and wished one morning that again i would never awaken. leaving this wretched world behind and erasing everything bad from my now blank mind.
