Dragger

By littleone23

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Insanity! Insanity! I wish to scream But my vocal chords have betrayed me They speak not when I want them to And say the wrong things My heart wants to die This aching is breaking my soul I feel like dying But all I can manage is crying The knife in the drawer The pills on my desk The rope in the garage The poisions under my sink The guns in the cabinet The car in the drive All call out to me "Here! Here! We can help you!" The heart in my head The brain in my chest All this is backwards Just like the rest I want to fix it My life is such a chore The pain and burning The saddness and crying The joy and laughter Have all but escaped Numbness Pain Happiness I want none None but a dagger dragging my heart12-11-01, Written February 24th, 2002 © on Feb 24 2002 09:16 AM PST, Bridget   18 • 0 • 1
