Leaving Imagination Land

by EJ   Oct 18, 2005


Thoughts of suicide running through my head
all of them screaming out all I wish I were dead

I look at my wrist and imagine how deep
just take up the knife and in my skin it would seep

to just sit back and smile because no longer the drama
my heart pounds so fast because of all the trauma

leaving all my friends thinking it was all their fault
when I took up the knife I made the final call

My mother left blaming herself for our stupid fights
Saying "if only I knew that was how she felt that night"

My father in the dark, sitting and crying alone
thinking so hard about what goes on my stone

As they go through my stuff looking at different things
They find my suicide note that cries out all my pains

It would read, "Now I must be in my grave
For you my family I could not be saved

I tried my best in everything for all these years
But the other night I could not stop the tears

I am sorry to whoever found me and for making such a mess
I know the pain you are feeling now I do not even have to guess

I promise some day you will see me again
So please don't make your life drastically end

As you read this I want you to know
I have always loved you even if it did not show

Stay strong things will get better
Love your darling daughter forever"

My mind no longer in imagination land
as the knife slowly finds its way to my hand

All these thoughts now become real
As I say to myself its now time to be killed

    This poem is excellent. Loved the lines
    My mind no longer in imagination land
    as the knife slowly finds its way to my hand

    It is really powerful and the rhymes are good and seem to come naturally to you. Well done 5/5

    Its a great poem. To be constructive, im sure u noticed that fault, and call, dont fall into your rhyming scheme. The only reason i brought it up is because all the other lines rhymed so...tightly and precisly. In addition, I would try and make sure your poems have a reading flow (this one does, but is interupted like...once) cause chances are, other readers wont read it in the say manner that u do, but u still wanna make sure you get your point across the way u wanted it across. keep up the good work!!! sorry if i sounded harsh. luv ya. -katrina-
