Gave All My Nothing

Contributed by Written2bRead on Tuesday, 6th August 2002 @ 09:08:48 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



I hoped,
that everyone else that was living was hurting like me
I hurt,
because all that I had was equal to nothing (and I)
I breathed,
for a reason that I could not comprehend
So I died,
to end this despair because I could not pretend (to live).

The pain would not cease, for holding my head up
Was to carry far too much weight
In a world that's not breathing, I suffocated
And ended my critical state

(I gave all my nothing)
for all this place does not have to offer
(I gave all my nothing)
for a love that isn't temporary

Suicide,
I offered my life, all the nothing I'd find (He was)
Crucified,
He gave up his life so that He could accept mine.

I was not different from all the infected
When I'd only a different disease
To have life without void and angst
Suicide, the old life must cease

(You can give all your nothing)
for all this place does not have to offer
(You can give all your nothing)
for His love beyond eternity

This poem seems to be more of a Christian poem than a suicidal one. It sounds like the old life is dying so that the new one (the Christian one) can take it's place. This is a really good write, it reads like song lyrics... :)

Beautiful, i agree it does read as
song lyrics, but it's beautiful, have
you ever written a song??
I'd like to see you write one here
I think you'd write a good one
Keep em' coming

This really beautifully written, and I too
agree that it is lyrical.You do have so much
to give and your writing is a strong example
of this fact.
Take Care,
