I have waded into the waters
And felt the pain that my death would cause
Felt the stinging loneliness
That leaves wounds deep inside
I have held onto the lies
In the hope they would bring me peace

And now...
Bleeding crimson death
I stare into the hollow eyes
Of those that walk this path,
But they offer no help
Only an empty hand
To guide me to my demise

With swollen eyes I murder myself
Please realize this was my only option
I fought and tried for so long
And I am weak with exhaustion
I kneel in these sands
Raise my head towards heaven
As I wait for the blood loss and pills to take effect

Beaches of Suicide

Topic: Suicide

I have wandered the beaches of suicide
I have waded into the waters
And felt the pain that my death would cause
Felt the stinging loneliness
That leaves wounds deep inside
I have held onto the lies
In the hope they would bring me peace

And now...
Bleeding crimson death
I stare into the hollow eyes
Of those that walk this path,
But they offer no help
Only an empty hand
To guide me to my demise

With swollen eyes I murder myself
Please realize this was my only option
I fought and tried for so long
And I am weak with exhaustion
I kneel in these sands
Raise my head towards heaven
As I wait for the blood loss and pills to take effect

There was no other way...

You know I could be jumping the gun a little here Joel, but I really hope ure not thinking of doing this. It'd be a tragic waste of such a valuable and very dear life. I suffer from depression and I know all the downfalls of it inside out. You have so much going for you. You're a very talented, gifted and very special poet. Chin up my friend and may ur days ahead be bright and blest.
*heart hugs 4 you*

Gosh Joel, this was just too sad. It just makes you want to help out and to ease thier pain.

This was really good Joel especialy the first stanza.

Well you had already shown me this one, I just thought I'd
leave something here for you to read another time. Especially
since my native studies class was cancelled but most of us
didn't know until we were already there anyway.

Awesome poem Joel. You know what I think already.

Wow this was a very good poem, I loved it. I can relate to it as well, i've often felt like this, only it felt like my heart was hollow and the feelings that I should've felt weren't there, it was terrible. *Rose*

sometimes there is no other way. and anyone who tells you otherwise is full of *****. the scrawl itself is quite nice with it's imagery, but i like the imagery the title itself contains. skittles and stars and what not.
