Array ( [sid] => 149015 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Final Step [time] => 2009-04-09 14:52:48 [hometext] => I wrote this in like... two seconds. So don't kill me with the comments, please! [bodytext] => I see the way you look at him
The way he looks at you
It always tears me apart
Because of how I love you
I really shouldn't care so much,
As I know you love me too
But every time he touches you
It makes me want to scream at you

Do you know how jealous I am?
Do you know how it makes me cut?
Did you see my wrist that night?
Did you see the dark pink scars?
I know it's not really your fault
That I react so badly to this feeling
But I need a way to release
The bad energy that rages inside

This jealousy, it makes no sense
To either me or you
And I know my cutting scares you
But I need to do it now

It's been so long since you've been near him
But I still hate how he looks at you
The longing is obvious in his eyes
The need for you so clear

I caught you in the act
My deepest fears confirmed...
The love I gave to you
Is not to be returned
You've given him your love now
And taken it from me
So now I feel that I
Have no more reason to live

So I stand on top of this building
Ready to jump
The fall will be exhillarating
But the landing, not so fun...
My hand is shaking as I write this final goodbye...
I confess I've always loved you
But I know it's no longer returned...

I set the note on the ground, under a rock...
Maybe you, someday, will find it...
Then I take a deep breath and step over the edge...
I take the final step... [comments] => 4 [counter] => 212 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Innocent_Sinner [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

Suicide is no game. I have learned to hate the word. It is spiritual suicide or it is political suicide or it is ... Does it give people a thrill to use this word? When it happens to your family for real, it is not just a word, it is the worst horror. Play with fire and you get burned. Cut enough times and you will bleed out. If it is attention you seek, there is a better way. Most of my poems are about the real suicide and the loss I will endure all my days. I encourage you to read them and see the hope that only God can give.
