Description I slide into the tub
The water warms my skin
But no warmth emanates from this fragile body
Just a bleak coldness from within

The memories all come back now
In this moment of final grace
Seems to me quite funny
How I think of your twisted face

Of the million times you hurt me
Scars embedded in my past
But now I shall be free
This aching pain won’t last

I gently push the knife
Towards the pulsing mortal vein
The blood that keeps me living
Will be the thing that ends my pain

I stop for just a moment
To realize I’ve been crying
But it doesn’t really matter
Because tonight I will be dying

I push the blade a little harder
And the blood it starts to flow
Slowly starts it journey
To the waiting water below

But the cut is just a little one
And will not seal my fate
But I’m a patient person
And I will gladly wait

I try to pull up memories
Of times without this pain
I’m so amused at this
Because I think of you again

I’m sick of all these dismal thoughts
Crowded in my mind
Time to leave this life
And all the memories behind

I take the silver knife
And place to my wrist
I’ve waited all this time
And now it comes to this

I shut my eyes and say thank you
For all of those who were there
I’m sure that I will miss them
Despite my obvious despair

With one final motion
The blade bites through my skin
Funny how I can feel
My blood draining from within

I lay back in the tub
Lower my wrists into the water
Close my eyes a final time
For the very last time
A human…a girl…a daughter.

i know i had read that, it is really good... especially for being the first i feel the same about my first writings - plus i wrote mostly pros when i started. but yours was just so much of how i felt/feel from time to time. really pinched a nerve, ya know. Cant wait to read more!

. . .this feeling. . . it is so frightenly familiar the emotional release as ones own blood travels... the nearness to death -sigh- yet my familiarity is to still "Close my eyes a final time"
i love this piece..
