From_Now_On Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Anchor Me Down In Blood Slit my wrists to watch them bleed You're everything I'll ever need And as I watch the blood run down I suffocate; it burns; I drown The blood; the tears They all just blend This razor blade, it is my pen Write on my skin in foreign tongue The things I did and didn't and could've done Slice my skin to watch the bright color surface I'm crazy to be doing this on purpose And as I feel this blood run down My heart races; I feel I've found Right and wrong A beautiful blend I'm okay I pretend Each razor kiss is another mistake But without this kiss I fear I'll break Away Drift Away Anchor me down in blood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisterlynch Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 It is not a bad poem, really; however, it is hard to read certain things. This poem has a very stong sense of imagery, making a picture in your head with words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arwen Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 This poem is really beautiful. It's strange how pain, misery and beauty can be so related. I hope writing poems gives you strength, From_Now_On. You certainly have talent for poetry. It's a positive way to let the depressed feelings out. Ilse.

Sisterlynch: I see what you are saying...I struggle with myself before even putting something like that up (even on this anonymous site). But otherwise it's kind of a waste, you know? So I'm glad we have anonymous places such as this to post. I hope writing poems gives you strength, From_Now_On. You certainly have talent for poetry. It's a positive way to let the depressed feelings out. Isle: Thank you and, yes it really does help. Writing is the most magnificent catharsis. I have gotta say, that poem has something to it that it really gives u the feeling as if u are there and its happening to u, great poem! i enjoyed it! Bilal: Thank you very much...I'm glad it was able to pull you into it. I love it when one of my poems is able to really pull someone where perhaps they have not been before.

EmptySoul Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I really liked it. Good job. Here's one of my favorite lines: Write on my skin in foreign tongue The things I did and didn't and could've done Empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
