Loosing Hope
By Ginger
i am so upset i cannot breathei have no control over me.nothing in my life seems to go right,even though i try with all my might.at night i've learned to dread,the next day, sometimes i wish to be dead.maybe hurting myself will be enough,the knife, it cuts, i don't have to press much.i seem to always feel despair,about life, anymore i don't seem to care.but the knife seems to soothe my feelings,it takes away my ways of being.as each cut begins to bleed,i no longer have the feeling to need.the despair that some people feel while depressed is what i'm trying to capture in this poem. they feel that there is no way out, no way out....
