Favorite Quote:
"...Watching over their shoulders, defending against the daggers that would find their backs. Their deaths usually come from the front."


Her heart is bleeding.
She's crying out for help.
Her loudest cries don't reach them,
They've all shut her out.
She scratches away at a scabbed wound.
It's now open,
The blood is flowing.
It's catching oxygen,
But she's losing it.
She helplessly fumbles for the closest pen.
Dips it in the red ink.
The tip of her pen lightly dances across the page.
Her feelings bleeding into it.


The author's comments:
What made me think of writing this poem was not because I was having feelings of sadness or depression. I have found it difficult to express my feelings through words, and usually can convey my thoughts onto paper.
