To Dream it was just a Nightmare
i used to cut myself...
i used to cry myself to sleep...
i used to dream it was just a nightmare...
i used to think of nothing but death...
i used to think i would never survive...
i used to think i would never find happiness...
i used to think i would kill myself...
i used to think i was the only one to get hurt...
blood would dribble down my arm...
the numbing pain seized up my pale bleeding limb....
the fast, sharp, gleeming blade caught a chunk of skin...
my arm began to bleed...
it wouldnt stop, i held the blade within my shivering hand...
then i thought "when will the blood stop.."
but it didnt....
my colours faded...
the world went black and white...
i began to fade.. into the darkness....
the night began to swallow me up...
i used to cut myself...
i used to cry myself to sleep...
i used to dream it was just a nightmare...
i used to think of nothing but death...
im sitting here in heaven looking down on people i left behind...
some may say im selfish...
and now, im wishing... that nightmare was just a dream...

Thought provoking, I wasn't going to read but after the first few phrases I kept reading. Shouldn't have to worry about offending any one, just write. And yes, I do hope we are all mature here. Then again I believe the world has gone insane.
Keep up the good work, it could be healing.
Thank you,
Austen
