Because
November 27, 2012
Because I’d rather just give up now.
Because you’d rather not know.
Please explain what there even is to do.
Because I’ve lost my mind, and all my chances too.
Because to you, that’s nothing new.
Please explain where I could even go.
Because I haven’t a place to grow.
Because for you, there’s only salt to sew.

I really liked how you put the words. That's a very strong poem!
