My Sin…

By Dhark Rhed

The razor is cold but the water is warm as I sit in my tub surrounded by candles. I refuse to cry. My mind is becoming numb as the blood runs from my veins. My heart beat slows. The thought of death soothes my soul. Thoughts of the afterlife gives me peace. I can hear the fire from the candles flickering and I can smell the wax.  It’s beautiful. I don’t remember thinking this through as I filled the old tub with water and lit the candles. It’s a little dusty up here, but it adds character. I didn’t bother to write a note or any goodbyes’. My eyes are beginning to tear up. How did I let my life come to this? I have always considered myself as a strong woman, so why do I feel so weak? My hands lay limp over my 19^th century claw-foot tub and thick red blood drips onto the bare and loose floor boards. The razor remains in my right hand but I can’t feel it on my fingers. If I could turn back time- would I? I need him now more than ever. I can vaguely see his face but his blue eyes are as vivid as the days’ sky. I can almost feel his lips pressed against mine, and his hands caressing my breast as I moan with pleasure. But he never really loved me so… fuck him. How could I have lost my edge? Death can’t be too bad… well, at least if there’s no hell. God… does he exist? Am I to sleep after death? Or enter into paradise? Will I see my loved ones who’ve died? Or am I dammed to burn until I parish for taking my own life? Either way there is no turning back… I am dying. Slitting my wrists was the easy part- waiting to die is the hardest. I don’t know what to expect. I refuse to blame my parents. My mother did the best she could for me and even though my father wasn’t around I know that he would do things differently if he had the chance. I have no regrets but I can’t help but to wonder if I will be missed. I wasn’t the kindest person in the world by far. In fact I was kind of a conceited dick. Sure I help people daily- helping people with my heart but overall I am annoyed by the human race. Will people remember my name or will I always be known as the girl with the red dreads? I have children, you know? Am I being selfish or am I saving them from a horrible life with me in existence? My eyes are wondering the attic where I sit motionless in my tub. I have no energy and no will. The only window is a small octagon and through it I can see the moon. It’s a quarter moon. My life is over… but I feel it’s only the beginning.
  

Happy Monday and Goodbye Apathy!

So I’m feeling a little better this week… considering the fact that I just had my heart ripped out of my chest.  He was the love of my life, my soul mate. Things were going so well until he introduced me to his girlfriend. I was devastated. I cried… I moped. She doesn’t deserve him like I do. True, she has known him for years and has gotten close to his children… where I just met him and have only said two words to him… but still……. That BITCH stole my man!

 

 Now go and light a candle and get out of the Dhark... Bye!

 

Question of the Day!

Good Morning Reader(s),

This question pooped in my head last night around eight o'clock when I was trying to taking care of business.


How can you tell when its time to get off the shitter? Is it when you no longer feel the need to push? Is it when those damn kids keep banging on the door to go pee? Is it when you finish reading an article? or Is it when your legs fall asleep? ........Please share your thoughts.

Now, go and light a candle and get out of the Dhark... Bye!

Happy Wednesday! 

First, can we please have a moment of silence for the 9/11 victims... Thanks.



Now on to the topic of the day... Dumbasses.

If you are a guy and you are interested in a girl but she turns you down... just ACCEPT it... don't beg, try to bargain or curse her out. And especially don't send your boy to find out why she rejected you. Persistence has its moments and this isn't one... dumbass! Then had the nerve to say "but forreal doe, whassup wit chu" after you just called me stuck up. Seriously! WTF!




Anyway...now that I'm pissed off for the day... Please enjoy the rest of yours.

Now, go and light a candle and get out of the Dhark... Bye!
