Just in time

As she sat there on her bed

Wishing that she could be  dead

Thinking if she did it, nothing would be said

Trying to choose between iron or lead

Deciding iron, she picked up the knife and tears started to  shed

Hells appetite for souls would soon be fed

It was now that she had taken one last look at the door

Noone coming in trying to stop it made her heart sore

Taking the knife to her wrist she would count to four

One, two, three, she braced herself for the ultimate sin

As she lowered the blade he busted in

Rushing to the bed he pleaded for her to stop and he took her by the chin

Pulling her closer for a kiss she felt a new warmth from within

She knows now that someone care for her

She knows that he loves her for sure

Dropping the blade she looked him in the eye

And he said " I didn't want to have to say good-bye"

    I like the end of it. The last line is cute. However, the rhyming seems forced. On that subject, your rhyme scheme confuses me. aaaaaabbbccccddee. Was there a pattern there? It's interesting. I like the idea behind it. Just, try to work on forced rhyme. It would read a lot better if it didn't rhyme as strangely. But you did make me feel, so thank you. Good luck in my contest.

    Hmm, I don't know; this reads like forced rhyme to me. I would have liked it to be a little more varied and/or consistent, but that's my opinion.
    You were very good with checking your work for grammatical errors, which I am ever grateful for. You missed an "s" in this line: "that someone care for her" but other than that, I was very happy with the eye for grammar.
    Also, I'm not a fan of the spacing, but that's also a personal opinion. On a good note, I think the emotion shows through on the piece.
    This isn't my cup of tea, and I'm not quite sure how this will pan out with Liberation of Sense; but thank you for your entry.

    Ok. This was depressing and rather stereotypical. You also had forced rhyme, which I believe we asked for people to NOT include (see rules). Definatly not my cup of tea.

    That's cute, I've been through that before. I think that it's a very good poem, well written...There's just enough emo in it, but not too much and I like that. I know that the judge of this contest doesn't comment very often...so I will tell you what he said when reading it over my shoulder..."This one has a chance even though this is the first time I looked at it." He hasn't really gotten the chance to read all the poems, but I can definately tell you that you will at least get an honerable mention.
