16 years old..

Contributed by xemptydecemberx on Saturday, 16th October 2004 @ 08:31:37 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



Bleeding now, she falls to the floor
Desperate for change, feeling no more
She's cut away her emotions again
Relying on this knife, her only friend
As peices of her lay shattered on the ground
Where the blood from her arms will soon be found
When they find her body motionless and cold
Shes gone forever, at only 16 years old..
Wrapping her body up neatly in a sheet
Tieing the nametag tightly on her feet
Her parent's clear her room out..
Looking through her stuff without a doubt.
They find a black notebook, hidden deep away
Filled with heart-felt poems of how she never wanted to stay
Of how her father used to beat her, how her mother never cared
How she felt this pain and sorrow was never really shared
Monday comes around, everyone is in class
Her friends wondering where she is as they stare out the glass
Outside to the world where everything is never okay,
Where they find out that they lost a good friend that day
They lost her to her suicide, to blood spills on the floor
Theres no more passing notes, no....not anymore.
Guilt now is all they have, and memories of her
Now the world just seems such a giant blur.
They blame themselves, they werent ever there
They couldnt prove to her before..
How much they really cared.

This sounds just like me. My parents fight, and i feel like i need to go. My friends say they will miss me, but will they? really? If they will miss me, they'd do something to stop me, they'd be there for me when i need them.
Keep writing and read my poems if you want
