Crying on the ground <br /> <br />She pulls herself together <br /> <br />Amazed that she can <br /> <br />Breathe with all the pain <br /> <br />But the hurt is so good, <br /> <br />That whole in her chest <br /> <br />gets bigger every day <br /> <br />The edges of her heart <br /> <br />Have now grown raw <br /> <br />She wraps her arms around herself <br /> <br />So she won't fall apart <br /> <br />But it's too much <br /> <br />To handle <br /> <br />She reaches to the razor <br /> <br />It's her best friend <br /> <br />The one that never lies <br /> <br />Pulling it to her wrist <br /> <br />She has to do it right <br /> <br />One deep line <br /> <br />Down the length of her arm <br /> <br />A sigh of relief the pain has come <br /> <br />The hurt feels nice. <br /> <br />She's been so numb <br /> <br />Since you've gone away <br /> <br />But now she'll just be gone <br /> <br />She won't wake from <br /> <br />The calamity of her dreams <br /> <br />And no more will she slip. <br /> <br />She won't be searching for the impossible <br /> <br />And you won't have to worry about her <br /> <br />Because it will all be over <br /> <br />And she'll be gone forever<br /><br />Shayna Butcher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/her-destruction-2/
