Taking A Break...

Hi again

I think I might post a poem every time I write a new post. People say poetry is a good way of expressing yourself which I'm having a hard time doing at the moment. And I write a lot of poetry. I'm just too scared to let people read them because I know they're not good. But on here nobody knows who I am so I don't care if they hate it. I wrote one which is really long but it's one of the best so what I'm going to do is sort of...chop it up and put the most important bits (to me) down and create a shorter version.

There's blood on the tissues, blood on the walls

What have I done? Another tear falls

Can't keep doing this, makes my heart break

But with no one to turn to, it's my form of escape

Lock in the darkness, lock in the pain

More blood is drawn, here comes the rain

It's self expression, never call it self harm

And then in seconds see the blood on my arm

Look in the mirror, there's nothing to see

Skin stained so red, that girl isn't me

Eyes so dark, seen things so wrong

Give me a week, my life won't last long

Won't make it to Heaven, don't send me to hell

Tried to make it all work, just didn't do it well

I never wanted it to be this way

But I lied when I said I was okay

There's no one to talk to, not anymore

Find me dying on the bathroom floor

Don't hold me back, don't try pleading

Just let me go, I'll keep on bleeding

In this bed with sheets so stained

Hear me laughing as my life is drained

And when you see the ghost of my final smile

You'll know I've wanted this for quite a while

And when you think of me, don't ever cry

It was all I wanted, just to die.

I'm not actually supposed to be on here, I have eight pieces of homework that desperately need doing so I'm going to leave you all now before my mum comes in and starts yelling at me. Thanks for reading, let me know what you think of the poem. I'm curious as to how my work is actually recieved. Wow, that sounded so posh! I'm curious as to how my work is actually recieved. Ha! Anyway, going now!

Thanks for reading (again) come back soon!
