Array ( [sid] => 27866 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => It Didn't Work! [time] => 2003-11-24 22:45:28 [hometext] => This one is about a girl that tried to commit suicid and it didn't work and she discribes her experiance [bodytext] => Numbness
dizzyness
darkness
finally i open my eyes

now all these bright lights
they blind me
people ask me strange questions
"of corse I know my name dumb***
what do you think i'm crazy?"
"can you tell me your name?"

"no *****! My name is..."
I search in my mind
it's lost in there somewhere
it takes me a while
to find my name
just my name
why is it so hard to find my name?

I finally find it
and tell the doctor
he looks at me with concern
I guess I took too long
and he then looks at a nurse
and says something
that is a forgin language to me

He then asks me where I live
I say "why, so you can
take me on a date?"
But then I see his sreious face
and I look for the answer...
and I do tell him the truth
but he is not satisfied
I said "I know where I live
but I"m not going back"

They stick a needle in my arm
and I scream
he trys to calm me down
telling me that it's ok

Then the lights are dimed
and some of the nurses leave
and another doctor comes in
and I am put into another room

Finally someone tells me what happened
they say...
"you've lost a lot of blood"
and I automaticallt look at my wrist
but they are bandaged
"and you had a seizue,
due to your overdose
you're lucky to be alive"
and I say "Yeah whatever"

Then tears
and more tears
and then the doctor says
"I called your family
they'll be here soon"
Then he leaves
and I feel fear
I am too ashamed to see my family
now that they know

I wish i would ie
just right now in this bed
so i don't have to answer
any questions
that i'll be forced to answer

I look at my arms
and I still can see
hints of blood
as I remove the bandages
I cringe at the pain
I look at my mangled wrists
and ask "Why? Why didn't you kill me?"
then i start crying again
and it's impossible to stop

My mother comes in
with a tear streaked face
she asks me a question
and I don't answer
I just look out the window
and say to shut the blinds
but I still stare out
out at nothing

I can see it again
the sharp razor
against my skin
the bottle of pills beside me
and I say "I did it right
why didn't it work?"

My mother says someting
but I don't awknowlage it
and I look down at my wrists
touch one
and for some reason it doesn't hurt

"It didn't work!"
I scream
crying it again and again
I don't move I just scream
and nurses come running in
and then I fall asleep

But that doesn't help
I just dream about it more
and I can hear the screaming
and I hate myself
It didn't work!
Why didn't it work?! [comments] => 0 [counter] => 158 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Ewin [notes] => moderator_9 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )
