The weight of life

Contributed by goodandevil on Friday, 5th January 2007 @ 03:27:45 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide

The weight of my life upon my hands
I hold my head and cry
I measure my life by broken hearts
Finding it hard to die

Pain travels through my body
Weakening my soul
Worth counted through my failures
How do I mend this hole

Staring straight out at the world
I turn away my face
Allowing myself to shut it out
I’m taken from this place

My worthless vessel left behind
A hollow shell of me
My life would just get worse
Had I not set it free

Lovely write!

My worthless vessel left behind
A hollow shell of me
My life would just get worse
Had I not set it free

I've often felt this way, especially last year when I made repeated attempts. So, I guess all that I can say to you is that I hope you don't feel this way again and I admire the fact that you got over feeling this way.

Keep up the great writing!
