Strike like a match!

Feelings i've had recently!

Striking like a match.

Digging in feeling the scratch.

Deeper i go the better i feel.

Knowing this takes away what i feel.

 

Watching the blood trickle onto the floor.

Knowing that i don't care no more.

Feeling the sting as the blood seeps out.

But knwoing that the ones closest will shout.

 

The shiny razor blade i keep nearest me.

Helps me when i need to be set free.

Shiny so sharp easy to cut.

Feeling the blood that i suck.

 

Tear that swell i cannot seem to stop.

Bothered and tired suicidal and hot.

Deep as i can tears still swell.

I sit here alone and dwell.

 

Why can't i let go to those feelings i had.

I should be happy i should be glad.

But why do i feel no one wants me no more.

Am i ugly am i a bore?

 

Only wanting to be loved but feeling this pain.

Around in a circle again and again!

Only want freedom to express myself.

Only to be stuck on a dusty dirty shelf!

How strong, emotions raged down the lines of your poem mixing with sadness and self-doubt. Doubt not this my Friend, YOU are a talented writer.
