» Poem: My Sacrifice
My Sacrifice
written by Psycho_Penguin

I stare at myself in my mirror,
The pieces scattered across the floor.
I hate myself so very much,
As I lean upon my door.

My thoughts dwell on distant past,
What happened to the boy who loved to play?
He never had a care in this world,
And now he knows he can't face the day.

Life is not worth living.
I needed to ease my pain.
These self-destructive thoughts,
Were driving me insane.

The blood running down my arms,
Didn't numb my pain at all.
Now I am feeling so very dizzy,
As I cling to the red-stained wall.

Admist the insanity and the blood,
I begin to simply cry.
I should have thought about this,
I don't want to die.

I stare at the empty pill bottle.
How many did I take?
Why did I do this?
I want to live for Christ's sake!

My mind is going blank.
I feel suddenly at ease.
I feel myself drop,
And land numbly on my knees.

At least it doesn't hurt anymore.
I feel as if I am rising to the sky.
I can't turn back any more.
So I say my final good-bye.

I couldn't handle life,
And now I've paid the price.
I've finally preformed.
My sacrifice.
