Time to Say Goodbye.

December 5, 2014

Day after day,

What do I have to say?

I'm not what they want,

See? I'm one of those who they hunt,

Maybe if I was prettier,

A bit skinnier, 

Maybe they would stop staring at me,

Why can't anyone see?

The cuts I make, the cigarettes i smoke,

They aren't a joke, 

But it's probably my time,

To just say goodbye.

I've went through depression and self harm. People still do it though. I thought maybe I could do something to help. I put my poems like this everywhere for people to see. I put it on my social medias and I show them to people who ask me for help. No one sees pain most of those who go through it. Self harm isn't a joke but bullies think it is. They want this. I went through this for 3 years and I just thought hey maybe I can help others. Maybe if teens or adults read this they'd realize self harm and depression is serious than most think. They say "Bullying will not be tolerated in schools." Most kids and teens go to homeschooling because of bullies. I thought maybe this could help somehow.
