You're Better Off

Too much pain,
too much emptiness,
my heart can't be fixed.
Almost sewn back together but,
so harshly ripped apart by you.
Each day,
it hurts more because,
you act like I'm not there.
So,
I take this blade,
and press it to the skin.
Lightly first,
to feel the cool metal go in.
Then harder,
watching the blood pour from my wrist.
I know your watching,
with growing horror as,
more life spills from my body.
You run toward me,
yelling my name.
You hold my body,
your own quivering with sobs.
I try to fight against the blackness,
but as the last breath comes from my body,
I say softly,
You're better off without me.
And,
cries and yells fade.
And,
your whispered pain becomes into nothingness.

    Good imagery, but its sad as hell and reminds me of myself a year ago....and some days in the present

    It sounds like you're in a lot of fuckin' pain, and I wish I could comfort you. Life is hard, but if whoever this is won't take the time to reach out or pay attention to you, then fuck 'em! Why should YOU spend time if they aren't??

    You ALWAYS got to love yourself, and what do you have in the end? I have been there, i have been there, I have fucking been there. Please love yourself, you are worth it. always worth it.
