trembling hands pick up the knife
seeing my face makes me ill
let me pop another pill
they all want for me to tell
about the problems on which i dwell
but instead i let these problems eat
at bitter soul and heart that beats

i never thought i'd have to hide
from thoughts and dreams of suicide
the knife it cuts against my will
the knife it cuts with saddening skill
and all i needed to save my life
was the ability to reason...

This poem is soo sad but I really like how you wrote it. Check out some of my work if you have time. I don't wish these feelings upon anyone for I have lived with them for years. You show a lot of talent can't wait to read more of your work.

Take care

Rebecca

Blue, I am glad you're over this. I sure hope your poem helps some others out there too, because just here in YPDC, there seems to be many of them. Remember what you said...
"I hope one day you realize the impact you make on people...with every poem you write... "
