Take Away the Pain,

Bent over backwards

Bullet casings spread out on the floor

Feel emotion no more

Splattered remains on the wall

Memories wasted and time well spent

Black nails and blood red lips

Drip the pain from my eyes and black them out

Cut my wrists on the dotted line

Draw the beads like blood from the flesh

Carve out my heart and shatter my soul

Life is nothing but a black abyss

Swallow me up into the darkness

Take away my life

Stare down a gun and listen to songs

Slit my wrists for peace

And kill for life

A contest entry

Please tell me what you think

    I loved this line...

    -Cut my wrists on the dotted line-

    I can actually SEE someone doing that...maybe I'm just disturbed....I think I am.

    I liked the poem though, it was different, but very emotional.

    I LOVED this poem. The format was awsomely done I rele liked the line, 'Drip the pain from my eyes and black them out...' Very strong and i could FEEL it!!! Truly and of course masterfully written 'Swallow me up into the darkness' Was also a very strong line I could rele Feel the pain and agony (Not that this poem isn't depressing ) But I LOVED every bit of it!!!!

    Hey Ebb.. I'm still reeling from this x.x some pains are just too extreme.. that people do other crazy things to divert that pain.. some even take their own lives. Then again, I like to think pain is good.. but too much of something IS bad... so even if pain does help us grow, a person could only take so much of it

    Thanks so much for sharing this emotional piece full of imageries
