Hey everyone! I was watching Season 3 of TNG yesterday and, since I've been on a bit of a poetry high lately, I decided to put Ellie's emotions from "Whisper to a Scream" and wrote them into a poem. Read, review, enjoy!

My Choice
I see my father go
I wave goodbye
Bad luck seems to find me
I begin hiding a lie
()()
I see the bottles
I smell the smoke
Now it hits me
I am all alone
()()
I find my solace
And it makes me bleed
I have my distractions
But it's still a desperate need
()()
My flesh is marked
The injuries are a sight
But how else can I release this pain?
How can I on these lonely, lonely nights?
()()
Here comes the foe
But now she's a hero
I now see that I can't hold this in
I refuse to live life in this low
()()
When the time comes
I will find my voice
Until that day comes
Leaving it behind will be my choice
All inspiration for this poem came from that one episode and I thought it was really intense since it focused on the issue known as cutting.
Check out The Cliffhanger Girl and I's collaboration "Trespasser". It's on her profile.
Review please?
