The Mistake

Contributed by shattered_glass on Thursday, 6th October 2005 @ 06:34:21 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



She runs around the corner
Her heart pumping in her chest
She pants louder
Her thoughts are a mess

Tears burn her face
As they run down her cheek
Pain haunts her body
It dosnt want to leave

She spots the ocean
Its just up ahead
She increases her pace
She can hear what they said

She's not good enough
She's a mistake
They don't want her anymore
They wish she was dead

She's reached the shore now
She strips off her clothes
For the last time she's breathing
For the last time she's cold

She plunges into the water
And swims into the depths
The icey water surrounds her
She can almost smell her death

She takes her last breath
And dives below
Remembering all the good times
Remembering the bad

She wonders if its worth it
She realises its too late
The water has sealed her
Her life has taken her last step

By Hannah

"and give us some good feedback k cheers"

How many of you wrote this one?

The poem has a good rhythm going.

"She strips off her clothes"

Now why in the world would she do that if she is not planning on just a skinny dip and not drowning herself.

"For the last time she's breathing"
"She takes her last breath"

Thats just one too many last breaths.

"She plunges into the water"

I don't recall her coming up for air again to take one more last breath.

"Her life has taken her last step"

"Step?" dive is more like it.

You just drowned a chick you don't even know and said "cheers", I liked that.
