Cuts

by Erica Brown©   Nov 11, 2004


Bleeding,
Puddles all over the floor.
Scabs,
Peeling so she can bleed more.
Crying,
Tears deep as crimson,
Waiting,
Till the bleeding is done.
Wishing,
The pain would end,
Death,
This has happened to my friend.
Confused,
She did not deserve this,
Tears,
Consumed in the Devil's kiss.
Funeral,
She looked so sad,
Never knew,
That her life was so bad.

    Such a deep poem, so musch emotion is shown in so little words. I love this poem so much, expecially the way you express your feelings!

    I like this poem. It's different from alot of others, in the structure and sets it apart from traditional depression poems. (Not that there's a norm to follow, but you know.)
    However, I do have one suggestion so that It flows a little better.
    Some of your responding lines to each word fluctuate in length, but with minor alterations it can be fixed. E.G
    First line:
    'Bleeding,
    Puddles all over the floor.'
    Third to last line:
    'Tears;
    Consumed in the Devil's kiss.'
    Just a suggestion, to make it a little easier to follow.
    Great poem though, loved it.
    Let me know what you decide to do, I won't be offended either way and I'm sorry if you take this offensively too :)
    Take care.
