A Hurting Soul's Rhyme

screw life
just give me the knife

you say no
I say fine
if no knife
I'll just cross the line

I want to die
say good-bye

everything is stupid
life is just crap
it is no longer a game
but a trap

please let me go
but you still say no

I don't want pain
I just want to die
so please make this easy
and just say good-bye

why won't you let me
I just want to be free...

Author notes

most of all my music is used when I write poetry...the basic idea is from my heart of course...but how to phrase things and little things like usually come to me from my music...because I'm always listening to it

    really good. Nice, short, but held alot of emotions. You almost had to look past the blatently simple words [not mean, compliment] to see the meaning. Almost desperate, wanting them to stop. I really like this piece, and the rhyme was really good too!

    Good job and good luck in the contest!

    the funny thing is people never think short poems mean anything but the truth is they mean so much.So much truth short & sweet & straight to the point!!! Good luck!

    I saw your contest and decided to check out some of your writing... To give my honest opinion on this one, I really wasn't feeling this (sorry!)... Your rhyme was very amateur and you could really use a lesson in descriptive language.

    Whoa.. talk about being emo!

    No, seriously, I can relate to it. I'm sure many, many people have felt this way.. and yeah, it's a bad feeling ain't it?
    I'm inspired by music too, btw. And movies as well besides that.

    Well done!

    Blessed Be,

    WOW!

    Honestly, I'm blown away by this piece! The first line caught me completely off guard, in an amazing sort of way, lol, and it kept getting better with every line! I loved it, I felt like I was you, the raw intensity and emotion and anger was intoxicating! "screw life
    just give me the knife". VERY amazing starter line, I've always loved a poem that started out strong and kept its way through! I've been in that situation before where I've contemplated and attempted suicide, not so fun, but this made me feel all of the rage and EVERYTHING like it was happenning again (which is a good thing for this contest, lol).

    Just one thing, you need to put the song and band you got the inspiration from in your authors notes or I cant let it advance (and trust me, competition just heated up! ). Good luck and PLEASE correct the authors notes!
