The blade

 

So shiny

Yet so dangerous

This thing

Could end all

 

All my suffering

All my pain

End everything

 

Would there be pain?

Or pleasure?

Would I regret it?

Or rejoice in it?

 

Would I succeed?

Or would I fail?

My goal

Never achieved

Always waiting for the right moment

But it never coming

 

 

I have failed

I could not succeed in even this

I am weak

Not even able to do this tiny thing

This tiny thing that could fix all

Could take away it all

 

Take away all this pain,

This pain in my heart

It is always there

Waiting for the moment to pounce

Grab me in it's clutches

And tear me apart

From inside out

It is Unbearable

I need to end it

Now

 

I will find a way

To end it all

I just need a patience

That I don’t have

 

 

Please help me

This pain

Take it from me

I can not handle it

I am not strong enough

So please

Just take a little

That little bit will be a lot

It will ease my pain

Just for a moment

So please take it!

 

That shiny thing

Its not working

It wont do its job

It wont take it away

It wont do what I need it to do

 

The blade

It wont go

It wont take it all away

I have failed

I have failed myself

 

Please take this blade

Please do its job

Those who depend on the blade soon make it their best friend or only option. So many questions rise about its dependability and if it will successfully do its job we crave for. We crave for the pain, for the hurt. A craving most people can't fix for us. So we turn to hurt and pain to make the inner hurt disappear.

The blades touch is fleeting and cold only anothers hand can offer the warmth and comfort one seeks, friends and family drew me to take a good hard look at myself and I didn't like the reflection. Never give up or give in fighting as there is always someone waiting to replace that blade. dark emotional piece, keep em' coming

it is a sad poem but it's something we can learn from... for someone like me i can really relate because i have tried it before and it just gives you another thing to regret... but still very powerful and you even brought tears to my eyes...thanks for sharing

Sometimes everyone needs a hug and to be told, it's going to be okay. That the rough times in life will fade, the individual will find new strength and tomorrow shall be brighter.
The blade fails, for in it's reflection the soul see's beauty.
