Jo Marie Takes the Knife Biography

Trying to live my life
Tired of all this strife
I've caused pain and tears
from hurt in the past years
...

As I sit back and ponder,
rereading poems I've written years before.
Thinking of the meanings and I began to wonder
are my poems just impish outbursts of a child,
...

Have we become so distant, that I am able to walk by without a glance?
Simply disappear without a trace
And you wouldn't care, nor take notice.
It is my fault that we became this way?
...

Can you understand my anger?
Can you see my tears?
Sometimes I wish death was near
I look at my wrists
...

Can you see the sadness in my eyes?
I know that my pain will never go away
Can you tell that my heart wants to die?
When I wake up I know my pain will not end today
