My Darkened Heart

My cries for help seem to be unheard 

I begged for love and you never said a word

My heart is dark, I probably won't make it

My life will be over soon, because I have to take it

Now here I lay in a pool of red

Its over now nothing to be said

The wounds in my heart to much to heel

There's no pain left, I've nothing to feel

Slowly my eyes close and the light begins to fade

My hand releases the grip of the cold steel blade

Death has come for me, and I gladly welcome him

I know that God won't forgive my sin

But if he loved me, would I have felt this way

If someone could have loved me, would I be here today

The feelings of sorrow and loneliness overwhelmed me

Till death was all my hurt filled eyes could see

I'm so glad it's over, I hate this place

Not a single soul will remember my face

To never be loved is a terrible thing I know

Death is now here and I must go

Save your tears, don't cry them for me

Cause only in death will I truly be free

This is beautiful, but it really burrows deep inside me. Its so gripping, and the language has so much anguish an pain within it, but that ending line i think is truly great: "Save your tears, don't cry them for me/ cause only in death will i truly be free."
If you're feeling depressed or suicidal, please don't take the knife, cause no matter what life throws at you, you have to get past it. Talk to people, counsellors, shrinks and the like, even your family if you're feeling so dire. It's never good to keep any personal worries bottled up, believe me.
This is great poetry. Keep it up.

When reading this piece you can feel the pain, the agony, the sorrow this person feels... Every emotion goes right through your skin as you read each word, each stanza... Keep up the good work brother...
