I'm scared.
I'm terrified of feeling empty.
Sometimes I wake up and feel nothing, promptly followed by a rush of anxiousness because I would rather die than feel empty.
I get frustrated when people talk about suicide being selfish.
What's selfish is that others don't put themselves in my shoes
and run until the soles become the bottom of their feet and their souls become tired, yet restless.
Suicide has nothing to do with selfishness because feeling anything doesn't exist, especially when it comes to your own emotions.
You stare at their cynical smiles as they attempt to tell you how you feel.
How would they know?
How would they know?
