The pointed edge that speared my chest had been sneaking up on me. I didn't see it coming to seek my quick demise. The arrow had failed to penetrate my still beating heart. It was enough to persuade me to attempt suicide. I failed at that to. The moon rising is the only reason for the heart in my body to continue beating as it has been for so many years. Make no mistake the sun is the only reason for me to try and exterminate myself. I know you would never let me slit my wrists like I've attempted to do for so long.The night is my only life saver. Unless you incarcerate me in your loving embrace I may not be here tomorrow to tell you I love you......

It would be better in a poetic form but It was so beautiful,and a dangerous edge to it almost.Nice work.

I really love it, it seemed a bit stiff in some places, but that is probably just do to the beat at which I'm reading it, because it's really beautiful. Dark, but beautiful. Mind checking out some of my work sometime?
