Take this offering of mine,
From the drawn out artery before you
Stretched taut to its limit
Run the sharp saviour across it and cut
Death away from life.
Enrich your beautiful and warm spirits
With the redness of my blood
A gift such as this is not to be spurned
When it passes out of fissures fresh and old
To make its journey into marshes and plains.
Red is a beautiful colour;
Dark and bright and equally so
Settling the score between dusk and light
In an intimately poignant manner,
Red is a glorious colour.
It heartens me much to watch it glow,
Shimmer elegantly against the glint
Of the cracked edge of a looking glass
That no longer shows my reflection
But looks deep into my soul instead.
Take this offering of mine,
From the proffered hand, oh so willing
To give you this sanguine pleasure
While drawing out the essence in me
Making it yours, in my place.
End: 7:10 p.m.

u cudnt have put it across better... one of teh best poetry on suicide that ive read in a loooooooooooooooong tym =)

Tcz!
Thanks everyone!
Yet, I feel that this thing here is being taken a little too literally. Or perhaps I don't know what I've written. :P That's definitely a possibility. I'm mad. Period. Ha ha.
hmmm nice.. there was a lurking gothic feel to it..and let me not delve on Cobain-i absolutely detest that fellow.
And they say my stuff is depressing. Ha.
BUt the point is, most depressing stuff, like this poem, is also hauntingly good, that you don't feel depressed at all.
Okay AND might i add that this sounds freakily like Pagan Metal lyrics!
Girl you rock!
:D
I like the style of this poem very much, although the theme itself is... not exactly emo, but I suppose along gothic/suicide rock lines.
Ah, thank you people. :P
And Jadis, Pagan Metal lyrics, you say? :P Seems like I have an alternative career then. :P
NICE poetry!!And nice blog.The poem's pretty Bodom-ish.The kind you would hear on the 'Follow The Reaper' album.For a second I thought these were the lyrics of 'Bloodletting' by Burn The Priest.
