Giving In

by LisaXmarie   Oct 25, 2007


Echoing voices scream in my head
Urging me to take control of my emotions
The cool blade rests upon my scarred wrist
Whispering words of bloody reliefs
I try to stay strong but long to feel calm
Never taking for garneted the pain I create
I drag my most reliable enemy down my arm
A warm rush takes over my body and I exhale
My hidden tears fall from my wounds
And for that moment I am free from the hell in my head.

    I'd suggest working a bit on your syllable count in this piece as improving this would make it flow much better. However I did enjoy this write, I really liked your word choice and the raw emotion you conveyed. I thought the first line was quite a good opening as it really thrusts the reader into your situation.

    best wishes,
