*beep beep*
The lifeline occurs
Beating in your veins,
Your restless nerves.
How do you feel?
Is this life okay?
End it if you want,
They don't care anyway.
*
beep beep*
Slower strides now,
Losing your grip,
And you don't know how.
That girl you once knew,
She's fading now.
It won't be long,
And her life will be gone.
* beep *
Fading faster,
Her soul decaying,
You never knew this girl now fading.
Who is she?
What does she have to do with you?
Of course, you never knew her.
You Never Knew.
As she fades,
She knows nothing.
Comatose,
A vegetable brain.
*beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*
You know it,
You feel it,
They think you're a goner.
The funny thing is,
There is no coma.
You're looking at yourself....
What has happened?
It's seems as though your life has ended.
What is this?
They are shocking you....
And finally you realize
What has happened to you.
**
Still nothing...
She must be gone.
Utterly crushed,
What to do now?
Her life,
A painful void.
She is gone for nothing.
You feel it's your fault,
For not caring more.
Now with her death at hand,
What can you do but cry and stand?
This lonely heart feels no more.
Her heart is no longer sore
*****
You never knew her,
This girl that you see,
And now with her life ended,
She means less to thee.
You feel nothing,
Her pain was not yours,
She died without words,
And you are the source.
Your drinking and pain have left her unending scars.
She is dead now,
Resting beneath the stars.
This girl,
Unknown,
With so much ahead of her,
Now lies dead,
And you remember nothing.
Oh, the life of a drunk,
Killing so many.
Now you shall pay
For the life you gave away.

About
I guess you could say I'm just a kid that likes to write poetry. I'm little more than that, really. I write how I feel, and feel how I write. It may not always be the best decision, or the best writin.. more..
