Suicide

How do you help the helpless?
Don’t bother, it’s hopeless.
Once I saw crimson streams
I learned to stifle my screams.
Darkness camouflaged with a smile,
A habit I know they’ll think vile.
My own secret, invigorating escape;
A deadly addiction takes shape.
It’s easy to hide when you’re already forgotten,
When nobody wants you, you’re the apple that’s rotten.
Nobody ever saw how deep it was when I cried,
Tears can be easily concealed if you’re on the outside.
A child left alone feeling forsaken
Is now all grown up and left shaken.
The older I get my heart becomes disgustingly clad,
This overwhelming urge is getting so bad.
To lose all the breathe and color of life,
I can end it now with the blade of this knife.
Close my eyes as the pain diminishes,
Only moments now until life my finishes.

| The rawness of the emotion in this has helped me today as I recall a friend whose own inner struggle overtook them. And even tho it was over 25 years ago I still struggle to understand.....so thank you this has strangely helped. |

You definately captured some of the general aspects to this painful but strangley numbing habit. I felt it.
Keep writing,
