Another Day

Contributed by bobotheclown on Saturday, 21st December 2002 @ 08:20:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



I'm sitting here in a bathtub
Filled with my tears
I want to fill it with my blood
I hold the razor
Against my wrist,
But lack the courage, the fortitude
To slice across

The veins seem to jut out
Almost begging it seems
To be cut
My blood is boiling
It seems it wants to
Leap out and stain
Everything it touches

I rub my hand
Across my face
To wipe away the tears
Or maybe the anxiety and confusion
Or maybe just to wipe away
All that my life has become
Or all it hasnt

So I choose not to cut
Once again, I don't choose for myself,
But for all my friends
Why do I have so many?
So for another day
I will live with my pain
For another day
I'll breathe and fight
For another day
You'll see my smile
For another day
You won't see my broken heart
For another day
I'll remain confused
For another day

What courage you have! So many times have I felt the same way. So many times I have wanted nothing more than to take my own life because I feel that there is nothing left to live for. I feel the same way. At least you found something to live for. As for me, I am still searching. It is the hope that there is something out there that gets me out of bed. Keep writing. You write beautifully!

This is so sad bobo...and the vision you give here is very dark...the way you didn't cut because of all these things you listed must have been a hard thing to do, but i can't say i know what it feels like to just want to cut......i usually cut to punish myself because i feel unworthy of life itself and everything in it, and i feel i do everything wrong alot of times but im past that hopefully as i have not cut in quite a while....this poetry site has been my healing place...i do however know there are many people out there who cut just to feel....i do not know what that feels like....even tho i have been numb so many times inside...that's not why i cut...thanks for sharing this one bobo, i for one am glad your still here and i enjoy reading your poetry...stay strong my friend...

very good poem Bobo. i like your name, its funny. completely contrary to your style in writing. clowns are evil and scary! sorry just had to get that out. lol. not cutting is very hard to do. It becomes frustrating living another day pretending to be okay and being strong just for your friends, at times you just wish they could stop caring for you so that you can have your ultimate reason, but it just doesn't happen. i liked this poem alot. hope you get over the pain, i'm working on it... going pretty good for now. peace out
