Noose [...the end]

i tempt myself with these ((nightmares))
razors riding down my rage.
a tw!$t3d self-build cage
that i hide within each day.

~

comprehending my addictions i come by.
i cant control the pain inside.

~

b/r/o/k/e/n, i break down -scarred- beauty .
so, cheers! to the noose...
and the ladder to let me choose.
alcohol to ease the trip.

~

i d.a.m.a.g.e.d all the hopes i had.
taking away current pain.
i lay here, a little more insane.
dumped into depression.

~

with the circle of {gasoline}, soon lit;
the tRagiCAlLy hopeful choice i'll commit.

~

i ABUSED the people who loved me most.
now, i must let them be.
no longer will they have to deal with me.
burning the memories, killing myself.



rope hanging
tight     drifting
into          hell
like             abyss.
i               know,
i've          known
i            will     
not be missed.

    My goodness! Such an intensely dark write and yet it throws light on your soul, so much so that your pain becomes clearly apparent, and there remains nothing to hide. And ultimately, the truth of "your being" shines to set you free!! And therefore, this poem becomes truly, madly n deeply cathartic!!

    I'm not really a fan of the sticky letters (tRagiCAlLy), but overall this was a great piece. I loved the noose with the text. I don't have enough patience to align all the text like that. lol Great good and good luck in the contest!

    good

    the use of word play in this was perfect. it was dripping in pain from beginning to end, then when you added that you cannot turn to the people in your life, it just seemed so sad and hopeless at that point. I hope this is not your life. good job with this.

    I liked the idea and the style was interesting, but I can't say it's to my liking. It's not about it not being good, it's just about my preference, I'm sorry. I liked the words, but the different ways you presented them just made it seem a bit gaudy. Again I'd like to restate that this is just my personal preference, I wish I could enjoy this more, but there's a big block in my mind that won't let me. Sorry, good luck in the contest and thank you for your time and talent.

    Great! The despair and hopelessness really show in this write, so dark and painful. I love the way you have used the hearts as a noose and I really like the paragraph above and below it. This is a very powerful write, straight to the point and hard hitting. Keep sharing and take care.

    well you know i like the little text noose.
    (little creative dark emo elf)
    the write itself is heavy hearted,i imagine all those thoughts and pains wear you down grindingly.

    *edited this comment because i am a fool and said "hope you nag in there", in retro,that wasa very off thing to say.

    bloody hell... this is an awesome poem! i really like the layout you have used as usual unique and in your own style! my favourite lines are

    "i ABUSED the people who loved me most.
    now, i must let them be.
    no longer will they have to deal with me.
    burning the memories, killing myself.












    rope hanging
    tight drifting
    into hell
    like abyss.
    i know,
    i've known
    i will
    not be missed."


    I like these lines because of the layout of them it has a great effect and i know you will be missed if anything happens to you! well done on this great write and gud luck in the contest much love

    WOW! As I read this poem I actually became a little frightened for you. It was that poignant. Then I saw it was the product of a word bank. What a relief. But you took those words and painted an unholy picture. Great stuff. Keep up with the good writes!

    Hmm, certainly creative but I think that "tw!$t3d" and "tRigiCaLly" (tragically?) really take away from the poem, I know they made me pause just a little too long and it really wrecked the creative, unique flow you had going. As for the visual side of the poem, I'm sure I'm not going to be the only one to comment on this, but the words shaped as a noose really were an excellent touch to add. Well done and best of luck.

    an enjoyable penning here, nicely creative, the rhythm and flow to the poem is good. spill ink and twist me into the crazy shape of love...

    What words to use in a poem - can only be deep and dark and tragic - you have used these words well - easy to read and understand.
