Romeo and Juliet

by Kara   Jan 24, 2006


As you sleep
I continue to weep
the morning sun
is at it's peak
Sun pours down
on your brightly lit
face
my heart melts
and skips a pace
My mind wanders
in the breeze
I look down
and my body starts to freeze
your body seems a bit
to cold, almost ice
looking into the eyes that
once held so much life
It hits me what's happening
like a knife
My heart hammers in my chest
Catch my breath
waiting for my mind and body to reconnect
I check your pulse, theres nothing left
Your covered in dried liquid
the shade of rubies and lifeless
as can be
you have huge gashes on your
wrists
it finally occurs that they are
slits
I kiss our goodbyes on your
forehead and in the air
this feeling is so hard to bear.
I stagger into the kitchen breathing
hard, grab the table
and pray hard that I'm able
There I stood, vision blurred
I love you, were my last words
Blood flows from my wrists
hitting the floor in
steady drips
My mind flashes by like old movies
clips
It's seems all the bad parts if skips and I can't remember
why I'm doing
this
My mind is strangled by
my pain
finally the end as came
No longer a mystery
this is better than never ending misery.
My struggles in my life I just can't
beat
now I throw my hands up in
defeat
feeling like Romeo and Juliet
History now repeats
