Quiet the demons
Cut away the ugliness
Dig deep into the pain
Quiet the demons
Sooth the shaking
And things will be okay
Forget about tomorrow
Forget the “I love you’s”
Forget all the lies
Take a deep breath
Step off the cliff
Suspended in time
Load the pistol
Pull the trigger
And the memories will fade
Quiet the demons
Sooth the shaking
And things will be okay

this is a very powerful and emotional write. It becomes more solidified in the readers mind by repetition of lines...which is brilliant. keep this quill flowing, for the fan in me toward your work is growing!

Cut away the ugliness
very powerful line, i dont think this was how you ment it but it kind of made images of plastic surgery come into my head, people cutting away everything that they think is imperfect
a great line
and a great poem -
wow. this is nice, almost like a song. it stayed with me well after i read it.

...just a thought...were you singing this when you wrote it?

Chanting, kind of. Digging my nails into my palm.
