Title: Escape at last
Author: tragic
Date Submitted: 2/14/2006

 
Poem: In the night darkness she walks
head held low
She knows the pain of rejection
Over years her pain has grown
And like a cancer eats at her soul
For her there is no protection

All those who have cast her aside
of them there are many
They sleep so sound at night,
she never rests, aching never ceases
Her senses scream with tortured feelings
In life she fails the test.

Weep not for her as she disappears
An end to this painful life
Is this the only way to find peace?
To escape from the endless aching?
Her heart no longer beats - it is still
When she cuts it with her knife....
