Don't Bother

Don't even bother

Telling me

That everything will be okay

I've been listening to those words

So many times

That I've started

To not believe them

So far nothing has been okay

My mind has gotten darker

And my hips are filled

With even more scars

Is everything okay now?

No.

Don't even bother telling me

That I've got

My whole life ahead of me

Lately I can't see a future for myself

Everything is hopeless

So don't bother telling me things

That I know aren't true

I won't fall in love

I'm not beautiful

I'm not happy

I will not be okay

I don't have a future

All I have

Is a cold grave

To look forward to.
