I should have died trying.
Matt Hartman once said, "Suicide is the remedy of pain," and for me, this couldn't be more accurate. I was sixteen, and in more 'pain' than I thought anyone could understand. I simply couldn't continue feeling so miserable, so I took the coward's way out. On the night of February 24, 2009, I attempted to commit suicide. I gave up on my future and everything I had ever known. I stopped caring. I had never wanted anything more than in that moment; I wanted to die.
The week prior to my self-destruction was hell. I had lost my best friend, my boyfriend, and I had been told that there was no chance that I could pass biology. I felt like
When death becomes all that's left
Even the inner demons become afraid.
But the delicious fragility of this travesty
has been too long in the making.
I tie the ribbon in a foolish way
because I mustn't forget.
How it feels.
To live
To breath
To bleed
To desire the darkness that
will take me back to a place
where we still laugh and wish.
Everything you've given me,
everything I know.
A cradle of beliefs, unraveling.
The light of distrust crosses my mind,
the one thing I trusted, now turned grim.
No words are left to explain my discust,
my hatred for your entire existance.
I'm lost in a sea of dispair,
because you've lost your grip on my life.
You allowed me to drift away
because of that tiny surge;
an inch of scorn allowed
a mile of sorrow.
All is said and done.
There is no turning back.
Forever more,
you have killed me.
Unclean.
Filthy.
Dirty.
Defiled.
An immoral act against god and nature.
A sickening bargain for insanity.
Must get clean.
But it won't come off.
This feeling
Of you inside of me.
Taking something I'll never get back.
But of course it's my fault.
I could have stopped you
I should have tried
I just lay
Crying
Screaming
Dying
No soul
But you're only human
So then, how could you do this?
How could you take me
And live with yourself?
Is this my punishment
For behaving like a child?
To teach me a lesson that I'll never forget?
Don't think I don't try
Try to forget
Drown my pain in tears
In blood
But it won't stop
This
How long had I been waiting for him? Seconds, minutes, hours? How long would I sit there in the dark waiting on his sorry ass to walk through the front door? What was I waiting for anyway? Waiting to scream and cry? No, not now. All of that has ended. Right now I just wanted revenge. I wasn't sure about how I would do it at first, but then it hit me harder than he ever had! I had figured out the perfect murder. No one would notice he was gone. No one cared about the son of a bitch. Well almost no one. There was one problem standing in my way. Julie. The "other" woman, and my best friend for as long as I cou
Maybe we're all a little bit crazy. Perhaps it lies dormant under our skin, waiting for an opportunity to burst out of its shell, and waiting to come alive. But what if it's already out, then what? Build a new wall and hide it, or let it scream out to the world? Allow it to take over, or die trying to fight it? Sometimes we need the craziness, but other times, it's deemed wrong, weird, and immature. I'm not talking the craziness where you drink too much caffeine and stay up all night with your buddies laughing, I'm talking the true crazy. The kind where you're impulsive, where you can't make it stop. Where it's screaming in your head until...

I've been doing writing prompts once a week for a while now, but I'm starting to realize that it doesn't help if I am unable to get comments and notes on them. I'm going to try to post a new piece based on a writing prompt once a week. With my busy schedule it might be less than that, but I'll try. :P
Yeah, things got a little crazy with the summer and all. I hardly got on my computer at all! I plan on rejoining civilization again though very soon. Thanks for the birthday wishes.
