Last Breaths
written by lost_and_forgotten12:24 AM 6/11/04Why is my life so bad?
Full of so many tragic beginnings
And ends?
My family is not a family,
There is no love among us,
We are just people living in the same house.
I am the only one that loves.
And it hurts me that they have
No feelings for me,
Especially since i am just a young child.
People judge me before they know me
Everywhere i go.
They point and laugh at me
When i walk down the street
Because i am always crying
And my mascara is always
Smeered down my cheeks.
I am too skinny to live
Because i have no appitite
When i am sad,
And i am sad
When i have no love from others
That are supposed to be there for me.
I have considered
Taking my life
For many years
Of my young life,
But i do not want to die.
Although people may ignore me
As i walk along my way,
I still feel compassion for them
And i will miss everyone
Terribly
If i were to leave them,
Even though no one
Would miss me.
I hang a sheet from the inside
Of my closet door
And tie the other end
Around my neck,
Drenched in tears fallen from my face.
I breathe in two deep breaths
And enjoy them for all they're worth
For i know they will be
My last breaths.
I climb down the ladder
Getting ever closer to the floor,
The knot around my neck
Never ceasing to tighten.
I can't breathe.
My muscles spasm.
I black out.
I can't hear anything anymore.
I see a bright light,
And remember those last breaths,
For they were the greatest time
Of my short life.
