Shadows Den

Tears and Razor Blades

I sit here in the darkness as you left me alone with no light and no hope.
You took more then the ring I once gave you as a token and pledge of my love.
You took my heart, soul, spirit and will to live.
You left me with nothing just a empty hollow shell that was once a man sits here in the darkness with nothing left.
I feel the tears sting my eyes as the blade slips thought my skin with little effort.
All that you left me was tears and razor blades, soon there will not even be tears left as I feel the blood quickly drain from my wrists.
The sirens are growing louder and death wraps me up in its icy embrace.
It wont be long now my vision is starting to grow dim. The sirens wont make it in time to save me as I see a light calling me forth to..........

I wrote that years ago when I was in a very dark place and saw nothing but darkness around me. I did not do what I wrote but the thought was in my head. What stopped me you might ask what stopped me is a voice that said Why should you end your life and allow her to live her life knowing that you are gone and what about the pain that it would cause your family knowing you are gone.

The reason I wrote that is because I had just had a woman whom I loved greatly and saved her from being abused and rented a house and paid 6 months cash rent in advance so we had a place to live Her, I and her kids who I loved as if was my own. She packed up after a month and went back to the same man who was abusing her.
