Enough

A dark poem of abuse leading to an end.

Locked inside my dark thoughts,
I still haven't discovered how to escape.
I try hard to please my stepdad,
But still the only result is rape.

I'm tired of living this way,
The pain just continues to stay.
I grab the knife under bed,
And place it under my head.

All I need to do is slit

Just one slice can end it all..

I listen to the sound of the soft rain,
The dagger still lies at my vein.
My silence is interrupted as my stepdad pounds my locked door.
My decision is altered. He won't abuse me anymore.

I made the slice that lead to my death
