Only Game I Win

by iFallToPieces   Mar 21, 2009


As I sit here in my room,
Hoping I won't be here for long.
I think of how much I've crumbled,
How I can no longer stay strong.

The tears may resemble,
The pain felt inside.
But the scars really show,
The amount of times I have tried.

In this room,
All alone, I think about how many times,
I have used this knife
And silently I say to myself,
"Why haven't I ended my life."

I wish I could just disappear,
Take this burden away from them.
No longer will they have to live,
With something they can't condemn.

The scars, may seem old,
But some are pretty new.
I hate the fact I broke,
The promise I made you.

Cutting is my escape,
From this stupid world I'm in.
It's the only thing I can control.
It's the only game I win.

    A really sad poem that was deep.. I surely hope its just a poem as well.. but youve been a good piece here.. its very sad.. the end I thought was good, Ive heard that phrase used many times but I thought it fit great with your poem.. "cutting is my escape"

    You did a nice job.

    5/5.

    Wow i totally didn't expect the twist behind the title. It really took me by surprise. But I think the poem was nicely crafted. I like how each slashes makes you feel like a winner. Though this is a greatly written poem. I hope that this is fictional. If it is true andyou need someone to talk to you can always PM me , I'll be more than willing to help.

    Excellent Job for the poem
    5/5
