    Broken
    The pain comes on strong
    like it will never go away.
    My heart is aching for what happened
    to just go away.
    I want to forget the past
    and hope the pain goes away.
    I was hurt tonight
    more hurt than any time before.
    I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
    The pain is so great
    my heart can no longer bear it.
    It's like something inside
    is ripping it apart.
    I just want the pain to go away
    so that I can live another day
    but it isn't going to leave.
    I am going to half to deal with it.
    I finally find the key to solve it.
    Tonight is the night I am going to die.
    I look around for the gun I had before
    but it is no longer here.
    As I am looking through every drawer
    I here something behind me.
    I turn to see her with my gun
    aiming it at me.
    The look in her eyes
    tells me I was right after all.
    As she pulls the trigger
    I see that I really am going to die.
    I'm laying here on the ground
    bleeding and broken.
    She looks down at me with a smile
    and raises the gun once again.
    As I stare down the barrel
    my heart is broken.
    I say one final word to the world.
    I say goodbye and then the sound comes
    and it's lights out for good.

    This is a good real poem. Sounds like we just got in insight into your diary or frame of thought. Try to work more with imagery.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
