Shotgun Nothing

by Dutch   Jul 27, 2008


Soft touches are apart from this
As are all the kindness shes missed
Theres a way around this for her
But she doesnt want it.

And everyday she wakes up
To a face she hates
And in a last ditch attempt
The shotgun lies between her ankles.

She isnt phased with notes of why
Of love, or explanation
The short, sharp message
Of her lifeless on the floor seems like enough for her.

She takes a deep breath now
Remembers what its like
She knows this moments coming
And she doesn't fear it at all

Nothing phases her as she rearranges her murder
Nothing phases her in a world where the shotgun is her only friend
Nothing phases her in a world where she doesnt even feel alive
She pulls the trigger

Soft touches are apart from this
As are all the kindness she's missed
There was a way around this for her
But she didnt want it.

    CUT IT OUT!

    Nothing phases her as she rearranges her murder
    Nothing phases her in a world where the shotgun is her only friend
    Nothing phases her in a world where she doesnt even feel alive
    She pulls the trigger

    This is one of the sadest poems I have read. Poems about suicide always get to me, they tug at all that is insecure in the depths of my mind. They remind me of times long ago when such thoughts and indeed actions caused me such emotional turmoil. Thankfully I have journeyed through to the other side and I must say it is nice here and I hope to stay for many years to come.

    I like the way you repeat nothing phases, it really tightens up the deep profoundess within in the lines.

    Well done
