[Self Destruct]

I feel like tearing myself apart.
From the inside out, or maybe, the outside in.
I don't care, as long as I'm done with myself.
I want to rip at my skin with my fingernails.
Destroy every bit.
I hate who I was and who I've become.
It seems no matter how I am I will always hate who I am.
I'm sick of this life, I just want it to be over.
Should I cut the green wire, no, maybe the black, no, the red.
Red always means self destruct.
That is exactly what I am doing to myself.
[self destructing]

Random thought.

    i like this poem. i relate to every part of it, but especially the lines "I want to rip at my skin with my fingernails/destroy every bit", as I have hurt my skin with my fingernails and "I hate who I was and who I've become/It seems no matter how I am I will always hate who I am". I just can't seem to ever find a way in which I actually like myself. Great write!

    i used to be the same way. in my poem unhopeful, it says, 'to live a harmful life.
    no, i dont think i will think twice.'
    i htink thats how you are feeling, if i read this right. hun, you cant just be somebody by not doing anything, you have to make yourself somebody.

    wow this is powerful... i like the part about coloured wires, its like comparing yourself to a bomb and that very effecitve imagery and metaphor.
    very strong write, it would be great with just a little editing, just to work out some grammar and stuff.
