My Day Has Come

Contributed by kisser89 on Tuesday, 30th November 2004 @ 09:47:50 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



The moment has come
It seems as if the hand of death is ready to take me
To begin the journey of eternity with stolen soul

It started out as a simple way to overcome the emotional pain of my existence
Scar upon treacherous scar cover my wrists and arms
I thought I had found a way to overcome my demons
But in the end they have just defeated me
They lurk in my heart blackening as each day passes
Making me believe I have to do this

Before I retreat to my room, my haven, my sanctuary
I kiss my parents goodnight for the first time in months, and tell them I love them
I do the same to my brother, telling him to always be brave
I take each step slowly up to where my life will end
Where I will no longer harm those who I care for most in this world
Where I will end the pain and suffering of my days
I take one last look at my life, my family and silently say an eternal goodbye

I take the knife
Kiss the blade
Hold it against the skin and vein at my wrist, and slice
I feel the steel slip through flesh and tissue
My last sight is of my blood slashing a scarlet tide over my white cotton sheets
I close my eyes and take what I think is my last breath

I awake to see a faint light coming through my window
I see the faint streaks of sunrise paint the sky as if telling the world a new day is beginning
I look down and see dark crimson streaking my wrist and arm, such as the red streaks the sky
I realize it is another day
Another chance to start anew
And I’m not going to waste it
