I am holding the blad,
It is cold against my skin,
I press it harder wondering,
Slowly I draw it accross my flesh.
I watch my blood,
I count the cuts,
I see my life and wonder,
Have I really done this?
I start it again,
This time, cutting deeper,
Holding the blade tighter,
I cut down my arm,
I'm now numb.
I hear something,
It's the beating of my heart,
Its slowing and fading,
My life is running short.
I get a pen and paper,
And write this one last note:
I'm sorry, I never ment to hurt you, all I wanted was to show you how much I was hurting. I'm preying you find me, I don't want to die. I want it all to be over, but I want to be alive. I'll miss you, all of you, my family, and my friends. I never ment to hurt you. I prey you'll all forgive me. Please God, give me one last chance.
After that note, I black out. I awaken 2 weeks later, I'm on a life support. Your standing over me, your face stained with tears. I hear the beeping of the machine, I feel glad you saved me. But at the same time I feel guilt. I turn away from you, I begin to cry.
Two weeks later, I'm on the phycriatic ward, I'm in a paded out room, I can't talk to anyone now, I feel too guilty for what I'm putting them through. I dump you, as I feel you deserve better. Then I find out you've followed in my footsteps, and you've died. It is then I realise I must do something. I call the nurse, and ask to see a shrink.
It takes me 3 years to get over what I've been through, but I can't ever get over the guilt of what I've done to you, the only person that I ever loved, the way I loved you.
