Social Suicide
By Butterfly
My lifelines are gone
I'm all alone
I have nothing but empty emotions to keep me company in this lonely life
People all around me
Pretending to care
Drones with programmed responses and mach feelings to their fellow man
Empathy runs deep
Through hollow thoughts
In all reality I don't care I don't know what this futile exsistence holds
in store for me
I am sorry
To those I hurt
Those of you who truly cared those of you who were true friends and companions
Routine boredom
Fills my life
The continuity used to keep me going day to day now the repetition has
worn me down
There's no other way
I want out
The easiest way out I can't take this lonely, empathetic, montonous life
anymore
The pain
Only lasts a short time
The razor slices deep and easily, exposing vein and an instant flow of
crimson blood
Warm steady flow
Quick release
Open wounds bleed the life quickly and the light that is my life is bled
from my soul

It's not really about suicide, it's more of a metaphor for someone i once new. This is his entire life wrapped into words. It was like everytime you got to know him he would kill himself and start over again as someone new.

wow... that's very interesting. I wouldn't really pick that from the poem. If what you say is true, and you wanted this poem to reflect this, then shouldn't there be some sort of "phoenix reborn" bit? Still v.cool

I love the last 2 stanzas the most, though I must admit I almost never write this way, in concern with the subject you talk about here.
