Too late to realize

now its too late
i never knew that someone would lose a tear
in my memory and hold me so dear
why wasn’t i able to see this when i had a chance
i was too consume on looking behind
if i only knew then
i had no idea then that could heal my aching fear
but now its too long gone as my soul tries to find rest
but to all the memories of mine growing in time just like dust

all those who seem distant and apart
just sorrow and pain left in their heart
I never knew this is what is meant to depart
when  blood flows from my wrist as the time went slow
i thought the answer will  come out and in darkness it will glow
but then to my helpless and selfish deed
the sorrow i borrowed in my closed  ones as a seed
i passed away leaving them in aching creed

      well then your missing the point of the poem dear... this whole poem itself is an opinion for not suiciding..this poem deal with the suicide concept in reverse psychology..
      i choose not to insult them(the person who is suiciding) by not giving them names such as cowards but instead try to put light on the things that hid in their dark moments.. more reason to live for

      neways thanks for you comment.. if you still think the poem misses the opinion then i guess i m in the wrong page.. would you please enlighten me then

    Caught suicidal person's point of view well...suicide can never be the answer....

    As for constructive criticism, you might want to shorten thelines where you can and add a few punctuataions, atealst where there is a transit of time period.
    eg
    i thought the answer will come out and in darkness it will glow

    into

    i thought the answer will come and/to glow in darkness

    hope you find this useful..ALl the best in the contest!

      hmm.. thanks for the comment.. yeah i do see some punctuation need i will check on it later.. but that line you said in the eg.. thats how i planed it to be..
      if you reread those two lines carefully you will notice our point of view is different..

      thanks a lot for your sweet applauds and your comment..
