Ending The Pain
She covered her face her back against the door
This heart wrenching pain she could bare no more
Long days led to torturously long sleepless nights
To many times she had tried and failed to set things right
The tears fell as she slowly slid to the cold hard ground
She gripped the knife tight knowing here was where she would be found
She gripped his necklace he had given her with a surprising force
And sobbed till she could scarcely breath and her cries were hoarse
If only she could go back and fix her terrible haunting mistake
If only there was another way to relieve this heartache
She opened her journal and scrawled down her last thoughts
She smiled knowing she had found the relief she had long sought
She raised the knife then brought it back fast and drove it in deep
Her eyes went wide her heart went still and she slipped into a final peaceful sleep

I thought that was wonderful. I think that almost everybody can relate to that (not the death) but the feeling of wanting that.
Her eyes went wide her heart went still and she slipped into a final peaceful sleep
I loved those lines. When I read them I was on the verge of tears.
Keep Writing,

CGL, my dearest friend, I really like this one. It explains the way I feel most of the time and I probably will end it soon. Don't be alarmed. I wish for death.

dont we all wish that? not the death, not the pain or sorrow. but dont we all wish for that peaceful sleep? i know ive been searching for it most of my life. but things get better. they always do. even if only for a moment. you should be able to realize if there was just that one moment that there must be more. be happy. keep writing.
great write
