Your Touch
I love the warmth I feel with
your touch.
As I press you closer, I know I
will never get enough.
With a jerk on my skin, you
open my soul.
You make me forget life, let
me once again feel whole.
As the blood rushes down I
long for you once more.
As I deepen the cut, my hand
drops you to the floor.
I realise too late of the choice I
have made.
I lose myself in the reflection
of my face in the blade.
I remember the advice I had
once been given.
"Don't harm yourself because
of your pain." he'd said as he
brushed against my skin.
I know it's too late now to
fallow his advice.
I realized that everyone would
know how I felt, when they
hear I'd taken my life.
So I hold back the tears as my
body hits the floor of the
stage.
I write on the floor an "I'm
sorry." and than everything
fades away....
But I am not sorry for what I
have done.
I will miss you all, my family,
the ones that I love.
