Broken

Everyone slowly leaves me at times I am in need This is why i take my knife and cause myself to bleed I have nobody to talk to and it's getting quiet here this pain i have inside me screams way too loud to hear Every time I try to speak I always seem to drown My once happy bubbly smile now turned into a frown This pain in my heart hurts way worse than a bullet I have the wire around my neck i only need to pull it The faces I see never seem to be proud this sea of people is getting too loud I hide in the dark since the light just is too bright They think that I am strong but I'm slowly losing my fight these emotions are so painful and they only kill my hope I guess the only answer is to be hanging from a rope It's not like I am faking it it's not like I don't try but every time I look in the mirror... i just want to cry

Elizabeth, as I was reading your poem it seemed to me that the words were chiseled on the page. The pain is dripping from your pen, you have a talent and I hope you can find some reason to love yourself. All is not lost for you are a poet born... I have been where you are so use your sadness and emotion in your writing.. welcome to poetry soup !
