About This Poem

Suicide Lullubye

Razor slips through skin, a desolate track,
As hard as you pray you can't take it back.
Ruby gems swell, slowly drips down,
Ice-cubed jewels scattered on the ground.
Pure white snow pooling crimson red,
Frigid satin sheet to caress your sweet head.
Icicles tinkle like a funeral knell,
Just another relationship gone to hell.
Death watches, a new lover awaiting you
Staining cold lips cyanosis blue.
He comes a calling with an arctic kiss.
Eyelashes frozen open in perpetual bliss,
Rest my darling, in eternal sleep,
Rest assured, the razor track is brutally deep.
He rocks you so gently in a cold embrace
Wiping frozen tears from a glacial face.
Patience, a worthy blessed virtue,
Peace arrives when the bleeding's through.
So, go ahead my darling, let yourself go,
Gale winds croon so mournfully low.
A lullubye to a broken hearted fool,
Shattered by a lover nevermore cruel.

    I have known far too many who ended their life this cowardly way. They feel the pain for only a monent or two but the pain they leave behind will endure for a lifetime for those they left behind. A sad poem but so very well written.

    A mesmerizing poem indeed with an almost 'peace' about it , I don't think its like that though. My brother took his own life and there has never been peace for anyone since. Good write though. xx

    This is such a sad and touching write. I wish no one has to go thru it. Well written.

    You are a Dark Poetress, indeed! I love the end rhyme scheme. The poem has a great ebb and flow. Your adjectives are colorful and desriptive. You and the Destroyer (another poetry soup dark poet) ought to get together and paint the night black. A messmerizing poem!
