Cold Steel

Dripping water
sitting cold
on the bathroom floor
mind buzzing
but sitting still
numb
barely breathing
wandering
as i look at the gun
between my eyes
if things get better
or if that's a lie
told by drug induced
victoms
of society
on their happy pills
i sit
shaking
wandering
how much quivering
would set the gun off
cold steel
on my forehead
heart racing
head pounding
closer to the end
closer closer closer
it's time
to say goodbye
i close my eyes
take a deep breath
"Baby! i'm home.
I love you."
The steel drops
to the tile
BANG!
I take a breath
open my eyes
look into the face
of my lover
his face pale
in horror
"I'm sorry," i whisper
"No," he says
tears streaming
voice quivering
a rose in hand
"I'm sorry"

    Wow,

    That really had me there for a second. It's like watching a film and seeing this all in action, then sitting there and waiting, and at that exact moment, the totally unexpected happens. So amazing!

    this was such a good write. i liked your short staccato sentences, they really added to what you were saying. i can relate to this to a point, and you portrayed the message very very well. great job with this one. <3

    Oh. This was so painful to read. I read through this twice, and each time I did, it seemed to have so many layers underneath. Such a deep write full of tangible emotions.

    I loved the ending. Almost made me cry- because it was so simple. An 'I'm sorry'- yet holding so much beauty and care within. I love your ending.

    && your style is amazing. Truly awesome- the short words kept the tension. A very powerful write. GREAT JOB!!!
