Running away from pain
I cant seem to escape
It scares me
that I cant avoid feeling this way
Sometimes im desperate
to find relief
so I grab my knife
and take it with me
I run somewhere
that no one will find me
dig deep in my arm
and watch myself bleed
for a moment it feels good
and the drowsiness kicks in
but when I wake up
I wonder why my life didnt end
Im crazy, messed up
I need some serious help
Im alone in my life
like a doll left on the shelf
only taken down
when its time to be played with
when im put back up
my heart has another rip
its horrible and excruciating
dealing with all this
im so sick of my life
im tired of feeling worthless
why cant somebody love me?
and mean it instead of lying?
im going to lose my head one day
i really feel like dying
it hasnt gotten anybody anywhere
so why do they keep lying to me?
making me feel like
maybe they actually care?
im all alone in the world
in this huge black hole
this deep dark abyiss
im about to give up
and seal my last letter with a kiss
But who would read it?
I dont think anyone cares
They say they do
but theyre never here
Im all alone
Ready to die
It would be so easy
if only i could say goodbye

Favorite Quote:
“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley
