The last moment of my life

I walk down the alley
Feeling…nothing but darkness
Seeing …nothing but shadow
Speaking...nothing but silence
I walk down the alley

I run to you crying
Wondering…if I’m ok
Thinking…that I’m no good
Hating…the fading light inside
I run to you crying

I watch this blood running
Knowing…that you can’t help
Falling…down this trap inside
Cutting…myself from you
I watch this blood running

I sleep on this empty floor
Dreaming…about you and me
Crying…from the pain in my heart
Wishing…that you were by my side
I sleep on this empty floor

I hold this gun to my head
Hoping…that you will never know
Praying…that someone would stop me
Screaming…wanting to be found
I hold this gun to my head

I sink to my knees defeated
Closing…my heart can’t do this anymore
Falling…I can’t live like this anymore
Drowning…what more is there to life
I sink to my knees defeated

I look at your picture on my wall
Wondering…if you were truly happy with me
Smiling…for the last time before I was gone
Darkness…The blood comes rushing down
I look at your picture on my wall

The author's comments:
nothing really inspired me to write this poem it just sort of came to me at the library. I don't know why I wrote it but only because I felt like it should be written and so therefore I wrote it. I hope people will understand that depression is not the most amazing thing to have in life and that it can lead to more dangerous roads. I just want people to also understand me from my poetry and understand that I have problems also and that I'm not the greatest.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take... but by the moments that take your breath away.
