Waiting...

By Anybody_Killette

Am I still alive?
I just slit my wrists.
But, I'm still here
with my tightened fists.

I still see the blood.
I still feel the drip.
It looks so pretty,
such a beautiful rip.

I didn't use a razor,
just a meer knife.
I couldn't take it anymore,
I hated my life.

Nothing seemed good,
nothing was right.
Day after Day,
the same old fight.

People keep leaving,
They never stay.
They wait until I'm close,
then they run away.

The cuts were getting deeper,
the blood was becoming more.
The scars werent fading,
cutting was now a bore.

My heart continued to ache,
it never seemed to stop.
The depression was worse,
The pills at a constant pop.

The pills never helped,
they just made it worse.
But they made me take them,
I just wanted to curse.

All I want to do is kill,
and harm all these people.
But, They never realize,
They are so feeble.

They treat me as if I'm the same,
But, I'm really not.
I wish they would leave me be,
I wish they would rot!

Leave me alone!
Why can't you see?!
I was never like you,
and never will I be!

The pain it continues,
I feel it kick in.
The blood is still pouring,
Death will soon win.

But, I am not nervous.
I'm not a bit scared.
I've waited for Death,
I've been prepared.

Death has always been there,
with the pain, and the hate.
He said take my hand,
it is your fate.

He told me he loved me,
He told me not to cry.
He said he would be there,
I just have to die.

So, I'm still waiting,
for this blood to quit.
But, it's still pouring,
it hasn't ceased a bit.

It's been 17 years,
I'll wait 17 more.
Death is my lover,
Death... I adore.

    mm. see... i vote sex as a pretty damn good salvation... and it's not quite so final. read suicidal study under my *anathema* name... might give you something to think about.

    Are you for real? I sure hope not, for your sake. Ehmm Death is my lover, Death I adore... I take you are saying there you think of death alot. Let me ask you, what is the point in thinking of your own death while being alive?

    You see it as salvation maybe. Allright but you are not dead, so you are not saved by death. So maybe you should flirt with life as a savior, becouse life is here. Death isnt, then you wouldnt be writing this.

    You see the logic? There is no logic in thinking of death as a salvation in life. Becouse in death, there is no life. You cant have both... Still I would like to say, nice style. Tiger
