Shattered Heart

A broken heart

implies that part of it is still there

But nothing remains of mine

shattered pieces smaller than dust surround me here.

They've become too hard to see

from all the times someone

has taken a piece of it

and ripped it in half

and it hurts even more

when they try to shove it back

in the place where a once whole heart  sat

like they broke a fragile vase

and tried to cover it up like nothing ever happened

But inside we are crying

because we know our hearts can never be repaired 

and yes I mean we 

because even though I deny that someone is here for me

someone is. But not a regular person

someone who has suffered similar pain

not the same. because no crack is the same.

But similar. and we understand that

we will never understand each other

but we still try to comfort each other

not by saying we get it. 

but by saying we're there if we want to talk

because the best therapy is a friendship

of course I have none of those

because I'm just a fat white kid

in a school of Asians who wouldn't dare

come near me as if I was a venomous snake

I don't bite. You're just throwing me deeper and deeper into the pit

of depression and at the bottom is a monster called suicide.

But suicide is the best option I can see because lets be honest

No one wants to endure pain forever. I'd rather die than live like this.

Maybe I shouldn't say live but rather... survive.

Because I am just surviving. Just managing to get that little sliver of air

through suffocating lungs.

But its all the same.

No one ever sees me. 

I'm.... Invisible.
