Cutting Deep
I remember the feeling when the blade scratched deep across my skin,
How this pain dulled the pain in my heart as silence filled within.
It was a love that could kill the hurt,
but only for a while.
Listening to the sound of the ocean,
Feeling the breeze brush off the sea,
SCREAMING the anger into the sand,
in that moment.....feeling FREE.
Dizziness crept into my soul,
seeing a light (I want to be there).
Forced back to reality,
longing to be held,
finding I'm alone,
repeating itself as I condone a deeper cut,
a satisfied feeling of being numb.
Flashes of the previous sensations rush over me,
once again......the light I see,
peace from the highest power
.......IM FREE

Disey Dise
HI, My name is Ladise. I was born in Queens, NY. I have been writing since I was little. I have always had a love for English Literature and Poetry. My favorite poets are Maya Angelou and Edgar Alan Poe. Two very different poets that I love for two very different reasons. I am a person who has always found it hard to express myself, so poetry is how I do that. I love feedback and I take criticism very well. So please feel free to leave comments. Thank you and God bless.
