Goodbye

You told me you loved me
That was a lie
You told me I was different
And now I know why

As I stand in the rain
Shaking violently as I cry
You told me I was worth it
And not to give up my life

You told me I was pretty
And thin
And smart
And young

You told me I was good enough
To follow my dreams
And never give up

But you gave up on me
Screamed at me
Told me to die

You said I was worthless
And I never wondered why

The doctors told me
I was nothing
That I wouldn't go anywhere in life

"Your anti-social, anorexic,
you hear things in you head."

"You suck at school and you have bags under your eyes."

"Your covered in scars from head to toe, don't forget you think your overweight."

"But worst of all your parents never wanted you,
And neither did anybody else."

So I sit on my bed now
For the first time
Holding the blade to my wrist

I slice 3 marks
One for everyday he's missed
