My heart is beating,
Slow enough to kill.
Can anyone save me?
I don't think anyone will.
My eyes are dark,
My spirit lost.
I can't take back,
What I've cost.
Covered in shame,
I'm tired of crying.
Sick of living,
I'm done trying.
Pain that fills my body,
More and more each day.
With so many tears,
I don't have anything to say.
But my heart is beating,
Slow enough to kill.
Would anyone save me?
I don't think anyone will.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
