This Is How It Ends

by Becca   Jan 26, 2007


As I sit here tonight
All the memories race through my head
All the pain, all the loneliness, all the hate
Everything you put me through
Slowly washes over me

I get up and run down to the kitchen
In search of a knife
Everything will end now
No more pain for me

As I press the knife to my pale skin
Crimson blood starts to drip out
Mixing with my tears
Letting me know my miserable life is ending

This is not how it was supposed to be
This is not what i want
I want to keep living
Yet i want the misery to end

But now it's too late
Little crimson drops are now beginning to rush out of my arms and legs

I yell for help
But I'm too weak
The room is starting to spin
My senses are fading away

Now I'm lying helplessly on the linoleum floor
In a pool of blood
Yet not quite dead

You walk in the front door
And see me lying on the floor
You rush over and look at me
And I say:

"This is not how it should be
But it had to end
All the emptiness, all the pain
This is how it ends

"You never could tell my smile
From my veil
My life was a lie
This is how it ends

"You were never there
For anything at all
I couldn't stand it
This is how it ends

"This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This.....is.....how....it......"

My body is now completely lifeless
No more pain
No more hate
Nothing at all

This is how it ends
