Beyond the Pale Date: Sunday, 1st May 2005 @ 09:36:47 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: blue_angel Kill me slowly Just stab me with a knife One inch at a time So that I can feel every cold slice Of life that you are taking away Oh so slowly With a smile and a laugh You watch me suffer As you dig deeper and deeper into my Skin and into my deepest darkest thoughts Much too slowly The pain becomes numbing You’re halfway through I can feel the sharp edge of the blade Gouging into my heart Yet still slowly The tip protrudes through my stomach I see the blood dripping Each drip slower than the last Each breath deeper than the last So kill me slowly My breath thickens with cold The coppery taste of blood on my tongue The wreak of death in the air The knife now lay in my own two hands Come death, slowly So that the pain is beyond the pale So that my tears stream in red Leaving stains of blood on my cheeks And none shall remember my death Kill me slowly… This poem is Copyright © blue_angel Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
