Escape

Tears begin to form,

Origins unknown,

They start to rush down.

 

Sobs escape me as the

Sadness spreads throughout my body.

 

Vision blurred,

I reach for the phone,

That buzzes with your call.

 

Pressing ‘end’ the noise stops,

And the light of your face fades.

 

Shining brightly,

I see my escape,

A way to release the pain.

 

Cool to the touch,

Smooth in my hand.

Pressing gently on my wrist,

The red begins to appear.

 

Craving the final result,

The blade now slices across my skin.

As if it was meant to be.

This is really moving, I can feel your anguish so clearly in each line...it's a hard place to be, without a doubt. Just keep writing to let it out...thanks for sharing this.

Thanks so much.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
