Never ending pain
Fresh blood dripping from my wrist
Never thought I'd be in this game
To every cut is always a risk
You are a dream I cannot hold
It's not that simple I can not forgive
You left me standing there dead cold
This is something I must not relive
Crystal blue water so clear
Never thought this would happen to me
Shaking overcome with fear
If only someone could see
Looking over the edge
No need for a boat
Jump off the ledge
Everyone can float
The clock struck seven
When I flew into heaven.

It is fresh and clean and has so much emotion. Although you started out strong and raw the poem developed and it did so beautifully although i was left feeling that I wanted to know more through the progression. Although beautifully written. Mwah!
