Slow Suicide

Just needed to write something.

Blue skies turn gray,

As the air goes stale with mindless pain

Simply, a broken heart the world forgot

 

Fighting away the tears,

With halfhearted smiles and boldfaced lies

 

Delicate wrists…

Cry my crimson regret

Emotion…

Dripping from every pore

 

Brought down once again

Past the point of no return

This is my darkest hour

 

Time is running out…

An awesome write Ashley. I love the last line of it most of all.
"Time is running out..."
It adds such a perfect end to it.
