» Poem: Mirror
Mirror

I saw my reflection in a mirror,
In the smooth perfect metallic surface;
I could hardly stand to stare for more than a flash of a second.
I sit on a spinning top, floating into oblivion,
Thinking of nothing, praying for no one,
Begging for nothing but my sanity back.

Longing for the solitude, yet fearing being alone,
My only peace is watching the blood flow,
Feeling the crimson tide of my blood wash through my veins,
Knowing that I can end it whenever I want
Or is it that simple?
I cry and I wipe the tears,
And my bloody wrist mingles with the salty tears
I don't know what is what anymore
I long for someone who can give it all and take it all
At the same time
But the one whom I cry out for isn't answering
These images in my head are driving me mad,
But I know I have to hold on a little longer,
for I am the Angel of Suicide and
I must bear my cross
