I slide the blade across my skin
Watching for the red droplets
To ooze out slowly, agonizingly so
But I'll never go too far
Never far enough to end it all forever
If I kill myself, I'll miss out on the world
I'll never find someone
Who loves me for me
I'll never know what it's like
To finally be free
I want to make it go away
The pain, inside and out
I want to leave this awful place
Of misery and conformity
I want to jump or slice or bang!
But that would be pointless
Why end it all for me
When I could end other people's pain
When I could help those who go through the same thoughts
So I will not give in to society
I will not let them beat me down
I am a survivor
