A breath exhaled---pay it forward contest--NOT A QUICKIE!!!!

I won gold in Dalaney's recent PIF (http://allpoetry.com/contest/2398717) and so am now following the intructions inherent therin


Your task: Pen me something new, something fun, or serious, or whatever you choose. Just make the dance to your tune so loudly that the message is clear

The Prompt: "Every breath exhales onto a changed world"

Or:

The picture:

Quick rules:

--Don't us the phrase as your title

--You may put the phrase in your piece, but the point is more to be inspired by the words than to mimick them

--if you write about the photo, pleas oh please don't write what is expected, I want something no one else would have come up with. If I think the poem is about something that has been overdone, I'll give a warning. If it still remains as is after a week, I will remove it from the contest. So please, be origional!!

Lastly, as always Enjoy it!!

    My Bloody Night Alone...


    I wish people could see how i feel
    cant they see I'm screaming on the inside?
    i want to get free!
    one more deep cut on my elegant wrist will take my last heart beat and my last thoughts on this ignorant world called earth.
    so i put the blade to my skin once again
    i feel the sharp edge on my skin and my heart racing
    i watch as my unsteady hand presses down on my pale white skin and moves down the middle of my arm.
    i see the blood racing out of the center of my arm
    i wonder how long it will take until I'm gone for good.
    i lift the bloody razor blade from my skin and watch all the blood drip off my arm onto the hard wooden floor beneath me.
    my eyes slowly shut and i hear nothing
    i feel nothing
    i am nothing...
