One last Breath

by Lost and Delirious   Aug 31, 2008


Tears fall to the floor,
and shatter.

Like glass - my tears are,
to match my heart.

Cut ankles
to show my pain.

Sad and tired eyes,
tired of all the tears.

Tired of all the pain,
I know how to end it.

Ending it,
will end me!

But I can't stand the pain anymore,
crying every night.

My body lay on a tile floor,
bent and broken,
in a puddle of blood.

Tears rolling down my face,
'I'm Sorry' carved into my left arm,
and 'You don't care' carved into my right.

Over my heart,
a bloody X.

My body cold,
and my heart lifeless.

My eyes are closed,
and my lips are sealed.

One long cut going from my ankle to my thigh,
blood falling to the floor.

Would you even care?

    HI, EmoBritboo, For some pointers;)
    I see the message your trying to convey- If you add some words to some of those lines, it will help to smooth it out a little more. Some of it can be a little confusing for the first read. You might want to have separate lines for your quotes, to clear it up. Don't be affraid to play around with the words. That's the great thing about poetry! And keep writting! ;)
