Community of Writers :: Weblog :: cant do this anymore

March 21, 2007

I scream your name.  my words bleeding with hypocrisy.  My heart breaking for your smile.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

 

I slit my wrists, sweet crimson on my lips.  But oh the bruises how they grow underneath those fists.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

 

My hands are shaking,  all this hate that blinds me.  All these words that haunt me, but im still worthless.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

 

these silent tears are choking me, reaching for the hands that torture me, all this suffering consuming me.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

 

Contempt jeers at me through my mirror,  always ugly, never good enough.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

 

Crawling into darkness, but your voice still follows me, mocking me, not even the drugs can save me now.  I cant do this anymore, I just cant do this.

  2. I'm so glad you finished this poem. I love it, i would like to hear how you read it. It would seem like a fast past kind of read, like in a nightmare scene

  3. your poem is just brilliant. i am new to reading poems, i am more into freelance writing. i was surfing and somehow managed to read ur poems. it was really great.

    the pain that flows through your poem can be actually felt while reading it.

    can i just ask u for a favour? even i am thinking of writing peoms, i have a huge fascination but never got an oppurtunity. how do i  commence.
