I Blame You...

A poem that is a piece of my past...

I blame you.

Look what you made me do to me.

I'm so torn and broken, I don't feel free.

So I will let you watch as I bleed.

Cold knife, free me from misery.

Jagged cuts, crimson drops.

Can't you see how this tears me apart?

I blame you.

Nothing could ever be the same.

My heart is broken, my emotions are lame.

The same feelings overwhelm me every day.

I wish I could just get them to go away.

The cuts provide much wanted release...

But somehow I can never find peace.

Now I blame me.

Look what I've let this do to me.

Imprisoned by despair, trapped in my misery.

I have to stop and let myself be free.

The past is now the past, for there is no doubt,

You are now something I can live without.

i love the title of this poem. for some reason i gravitated towards it... and the subject matter is so rich. this is a very sad and dark piece, but i loved it. try writing a short story with this poem as the inspiration! you could do wonders with that i think. great write. thank you for sharing!
