Sometimes
Sometimes when you just feel alone
There seems to be only one choice
It seems the only way out
Is trying to take your own life
Not many people may know
How painful it is to have these thoughts running around in your head
Thanks to the demons who live under my bed
"You know I love you right?"
That's what they said
The day I let my guard down
When I told someone how I felt
It's not that I didn't know
It's that it didn't seem real
Having to make my own meals from an early age
Just because of my sensory issues
The anxiety I got from losing things
It would get to the point where I couldn't breathe
Instead of helping me through that pain
All I got was
"I'm never helping you again"
"It's gone forever, never to be seen"
Being sent to my room for punishment
Then hours later it's never talked about again
From the early age of eleven I was sadly depressed
The first family member I lost
Was at the early age of eight
Now all I feel is the guilt
From not seeing my granny
Before that fateful week
In early November
When I saw her take her last ever breath
At 2:30 in the morning
So many all nighters
Just so she wouldn't leave me
Before I got to say my final goodbye
In the span of one year
I had a grand mal seizure
Watched my family break apart forever
Get diagnosed with adhd and anxiety
Not able to go outside to help clear my mind
Of all these negative thoughts
Complements of the demons in the mess I call my head
I don't remember my childhood
Due to the trauma I endured
I have been able to forgive
But I will never forget
I just want this feeling to go away
I want to feel loved for once
And not think that it's fake but real
