"let's be sad!" they scream
"depression, self harm, self hate!"
but
let's not be sad, okay?
i don't want to read your tears
(i'm not saying you have to keep them to yourself)
but why do you keep writing about suicide?
i think half the time you only write about it
it's because you just want people to read it
do you like making people sad?
do you like to make them cry?
you just write about darkness
because darkness and sadness and depression
and tragedy and pain and tears and hate and death
sells
