Suicide

Just attempted a rhyming poem after many many years. They're not really my strength but oh well, I tried. =) It's a suicide letter a mother left for her child. Kinda like a creepy nursery rhyme .Comment*

It's amazing how much you take for granted.
In this world so crooked and slanted.
It's there one day and not another.
The flowers bloom, but then they all wither.

So here's a tale of my bitter childhood.
where the truth is hidden, as it should
for you are too young to understand this
the overpowering strength of a single kiss.

The physical pleasure of things, so unfair.
And the regrets after, now that's a nightmare
He said "Go ahead, darling. take it off."
"slut" did you say? or was that a cough?

It smelt like metal and felt like velvet
he moaned and groaned. I knew he liked it.
we have spoken only 2 words, but this feels so right.
I thought to myself as his body glistened in the moonlight.

I knew I had found him, the man of my dreams.
and here he was too, ripping at my seams.
It should be simple, nothing more than a prick
...Oh wow that hurts! DO it quick!

And soon it was over, the moment of truth
just like that he'd stolen my heart and my youth
the connection we shared was undeniable
the passion, the feelings...so undescribable.

I will cherish this one. Yes, I will
Wait a second.
Is that a fifty dollar bill?
He held me close and breathed in my ear.
I watched him zip up as out slid a tear.

I would've held my breath a little longer.
inhaled that last puff a little stronger.
if I knew that I was nothing more
than a cheap whore on the floor.

I didn't even ask for his name, now I realize.
But it didn't matter, 'cause I was in for a surprise.
Because 9 months later, I had another tummy to fill.
With nothing more in my pocket than his 50 dollar bill.

With the man of my dreams
and the cause of my screams
I leave you this letter.
though it won't make things better.

So goodbye, my orphan-to-be.
I'm going back to hell to set myself free.
There's nothing more I can say or do for you
except I know, deep down, he loved me too.
