you may think im alive
as i sit next to you
but you thought wrong
because thats not true
the truth is i'm dead
im dead inside
lonely and cold
im burning alive
theres no way to fix me
so dont even try
just leave me alone
leave me here to die
i try to act happy
like everything fine
but the truth is im dead
im dead inside
i feel empty
like everythings missing
and everything going wrong
but no one here to fix it
why should life go on?
i dont know how to deal with this
thats where my knife comes in
it helps me bleed and slit my wrists
but thats not where it ends
it cuts so deep
even my soul leaks out
as the drips of blood fall to the ground
tears fall down my lonely face
and i wonder why im here
but thats just life
and i haven't died
even tho im getting near
but i haven't died
life isn't through
so i'll keep slitting
cutting
and gashing
until the day i do.

0.0! Oooooh! I love your poem! Do you ever feel like you're just a shell of a person who used to be alive, drifting emptily through life only for other's people's guilty need of your existance?

Wow! This is really good! It's very lyrical.
You have a massive talent, and you write so beautifully. You make even the most painful, awful things, seem beautiful. Great job!

Good job!
This is very sad. But like all ur other poems it is very well written and I enjoy reading them. Great job on ur writing skills. Very few people can capture words like you do. You truly have a gift.

good work, keep it up
I can see it as a song and its beautifully written. Its so dark and sad... it just sort of grabs hold and pulls you down the void... very cool
