Poems
May 2014
warm blood
Lies in a bath tub,
filled to the brink.
He has tried to go under,
He has tried to sink.
He maneuvers his fingers slowly,
To the edge of the blade.
His goal is to only,
Make the memories fade.
But not much will change,
The more he will suffer.
Lets try again?
One cut after another.
Warm blooded,
The water turns red.
He is still alive,
He is not dead.
His hope is religion,
His strength he must trust.
Take all the bad memories,
Turn then to dust...
I was diagnosed with depression and I have struggled with life many days
