I can't

by ShhhhItsASecret©   Oct 28, 2005


I can't wake up in the morning
Without being disappointed I'm still alive

I can't look at a bottle of pills
Without wanting to consume the entire bottle

I can't go near water
Without wishing I would drown

I can't go near fire
Without hoping I would burn

I can't see a rope
Without hoping it would strangle the life out of me

I can't look at a knife
Without wanting to cut

I can't get in a car
Withour hoping to die in a crash

I can't cross the traintracks
Without wishing a train would crush me

I can't go to sleep
Without wishing it was the last day of my life

Do you still want to think I'm fine?

    I loved this... it's incredibly powerful, the words mean so much and this is full of emotion.
    I especially liked the way you've finished it. It had a completely different effect than the rest of the poem.... it really stood out (if you dont know what i mean, i do, im sorry !!)

    Thanks for your comment, i really appreciate it.
