My younger brother and I wrote this poem actually, I didn't know he could be so creative until now. Let me know what you think.
Russian Roulette~Jonny D. A. and Gabby A.A.
Watch my body
as I fall to the ground.
Broken and blurry
I lost what I thought I had found.
The dead shall arise
and call my name.
lurking in the darkness
they beg me to join them.
I contemplate their request
knowing I have nothing left.
My quiet spirit
and honest disposition
keep me from getting what I want.
My friends use me
my boyfriend abuses me
so I let them all go.
Now more than ever I feel so alone.
Everyone else leaves me to sit
to wallow in my own demented fears.
Don't you understand I can't control how I feel?
I've come to realize,
no one is real.
As I come to this realization once again,
I stare down the barrel,
and see my bitter end.
I hope the bullet hits me
with all accuracy.
I think about leaving a note,
but there's no use for that.
It's not like they would read it anyways.
I take one last breathe
and say one last prayer.
As I play the game of Russian Roulette
I brace myself and pull the trigger
hoping the bullet is my fate.
The trigger's pulled,
and with a jolt I leave my body,
I walk towards a shining light.
And as I get closer to the light,
my darkness falls away.
Wow. It's pretty dark stuff, but a nice collaborative effort. Keep writing.
Lol yes..most of what I write is dark, which is surprising considering I am a happy person and can't write happy stuff very well.
Hey, all writers do the dark stuff. That's what grabs people.
