the only thing wrong is me (poem)


Recommended Posts

The only thing wrong is me

 

With a knife in one hand, a gun in the other

I write my last words say bye to my mother

Wonder where my life went so wrong

Why I ended up singing this sad song

But then it becomes clear and I can see

That the only thing wrong with my world is me

 

 

Cant take the drama of this sad life

So I live by my rusty knife

Slice and dice and bleed me gone

I have suffered here to long

You ask me why I live this way

Why I sink lower everyday

I answer you with the truth

The story of my sad youth

 

With a knife in one hand, a gun in the other

Write my last words say bye to my mother

Wonder where my life went so wrong

Why I ended up singing this sad song

But then it becomes clear and I can see

That the only thing wrong with my world is me

 

Drunken father breath of death

I drown out the screams like I am deaf

Beaten child broken dreams

Fallen angel broken wings

I grasp for air his clutch so tight

But its done, he's won the fight

I am bleeding but not dead

Yet all these games mess with my head

So I sit and write my story

With screams and yells and a touch gory

 

With a knife in one hand, a gun in the other

Write my last words say bye to my mother

Wonder where my life went so wrong

Why I ended up singing this sad song

But then it becomes clear and I can see

That the only thing wrong with my world is me

 

So my story is out sad but true

I ask not sympathy but love from you

As my soul darkens I make a final try

Before this soul begins to die

 

comments are greatly appreciated.

i cant stand pesiistic stuff like that i mean i keep seeing all these susicide and poems about depression.. u have talent and itd be great if you used it for something optomistically not poems about suicide and stuff i mean come on .. its getting old in my opinion.enjoy life while you can.. cause life is too short and you cant enjoy life if/when ur dead like you write about

I like it, its more lyrical than your other poems. I guess from the line "Why I ended up singing this sad song," you intended this to be a song.

I know how you feel, I get that way sometimes too, thinking the only thing between me and my hapiness is myself. I guess all one can do is soldier on, and hope things will get better as we go along.

 

Keep up the great work,

ok, i agree with mysteryman, you do have great talent, and the poem is wonderful but it would be nice to see such talent in an uplifting poem, and not to be mean but his comment is just as welcome as everyone elses, not all oppinions are roses and candy, but the poem was well written
