Nowhere To Go by Seizure

I'm out in the cold, dew turns to ice
I look at my arm, it's missing a slice
The blood runs down, collects on the ground
I drop to my knees, there's no one around
Wind is uncaring, it flows past me
The chill is severe, I think you'd agree
I don't have a coat, the wind kills my throat
I just have a note, that last night I wrote

I take it out, and start to unfold
I can't feel my legs, I think they're too cold
I read the first line, a tear rounds my cheek
A lump's in my throat, I can not speak
It said I'll fall down, I've nothing to hold
I've lost all my faith, I am growing cold
I've lost everything, I hate every breath
I am so alone, when will I greet death?

I've faced my defeat, I've lost at my life
I've shredded my arm, blood covers my knife
I never survived, my curtain has closed
The show can't go on, my path is exposed
I'd do anything, to not feel this way
I've nowhere to go, I am not okay
I have tried my best, I just can't forget
Each day that I live's a day I regret

I've been here for days, I'm out on the street
People walk past, they don't stop to greet
My body slows down, I forget to blink
I am so thirsty, I've nothing to drink
What life I have left, just wants to break down
Tears run from my eyes, and fall to the ground
I roll to my back, I look to the sky
Now I close my eyes, and wisper goodbye

so there with you
The best poems are the ones you can relate to. Know that you're not alone out there, Seiz... and I don't just mean about the depression. I cut, too. People say that it's bad but they don't know, they just don't know what it's like to be dying inside and to have a way to let yourself know that you are still alive...

Oh Seiz...
This is great. I love this poem, it was beautiful.

wow
wow seiz, this one stopped me in my tracks. i was just reading through poems, got to this one, and.... wow. at the moment i cant say anything but that. isn't it weird how sometimes you search for words to explain yourself or how you feel, and then you come across someone else who has done it for you?? seiz, as always, great, touching poem. i can't wait to see more, even if they are unfortunatly like this one as you say.. you obviously pour yourself into your poems, and you do it so well. love them all seizure. keep up the good work

right....
Dragonsinger, thanks for your comment and your view on cutting. Might allow other minds wander.

Ash & Ashley R, thanks for the comments. They are always appreciated.

Shan, you're too kind. Never expected a comment such as that, but it is very much appreciated. I hope I don't disappoint in the future.

Never quite been there
I've never been to this extreme of life myself, but reading your work takes me there, if only for a moment of what must seem like an eternity to you.

I like the rythem in your writing, in this one and in your others. Keep singing to us your tales of woe so that we too can know the feelings and can understand that which we have never experienced.. I enjoy your work. Though I still always hope for a glimmer of joy.

no title
Seiz, b4 when i read this poem i didn't get a chance to really write down what i thought about this one. It is wonderful. I've been going thru a lot lately and this poem is just the kind of thing i wanted to read. It makes you feel less alone because u know someone else out there is going thru too.
