Poem

I'm so broken and nobody notices
I'm not okay
I'm not happy
I'm not stable
This is a bad poem
This is a s a d poem
This is a b r o k e n, e m p t y, p o e m
It doesn't even deserve the title
p o e m
because poetry is b e a u t i f u l
but this one isn't
it's ugly
it's broken
it's empty
it's pointless
just like me.
I'm crying and I'm screaming
and I'm tired and I just
want everything to
stop spinning.
I mean, I could drown it away
with vodka
with pills
with silvers sheets of metal
or
maybe even just run away
but I can't
because I'm scared
I'm terrified
I'm sad
I'm empty
I'm broke
I'm a tragedy
I'm pointless
I'm me
