When Water Turns To Red

by Chantelle   Jun 21, 2006


Cutting away to release the pain

How'd I get mixed up in this torturous game?

Tearing the skin to watch the blood pour

Holding back the tears as the pain strengthens more

Painful memories flash through my mind

For all the good ones were left behind

This feeling's overwhelming, too hard to take

I think I'm finally about to break

My hand starts to shake and a tear begins to fall

Today is the day of my last call

I swallow the pills and jump in the bath

It's my own fault, I chose this path

I cut once more as the water turns to red

They'll find me in a bloody bath, cold and dead

Attached to me a note will say

'In your hearts my soul will lay'

    The way you wrote this is amazing! It all seems so real. I could picture it all in my head and I could really feel the emotion you put into it. Absolutely beautiful. Definite 5 out of 5.

    Beautiful as always, scary because it is to close to what I've thought and almost done, but the feelings are very nicely captured. Keep up writing PLEASE!
