Emotional Suicide… [Poem]
I killed my Heart… It was Emotional suicide!
I went to the store, bought six feet of rope,
I didn’t have money so I paid for it with all my hope; They asked me if I was making a Swing, I smiled and said yes, one that will take me to eternal Spring;
Walking back home, rope in one hand, heart in the other, neither knowing that they would eventually end up together;
I made a noose, big enough to fill it, tight enough to kill it,
That’s a very nice bow my heart said, It’ll look very nice around your neck the rope said;
As I smiled and put the noose around my heart, it smiled back as if to say “this is really it and thank you for letting me play my part”,
But before I tightened the rope against it’s neck, My Heart stopped beating…
My Heart, Killed my Heart!
Death by hanging, came the verdict:
But I know…
I Killed My Heart… It was Emotional Suicide!!!
