Why does she say she's my friend but when I say I need help she suddenly "has to go"
When you have a broken arm everyone runs forwards to sign the cast
But when you say you have depression everyone runs the other way
Why when I tell him I love him he changes the subject or "she" said she needs his help so he has to go...
And when you're 5 you're family and teachers tell you "You Can Be Anything"
But when you're 15 they want you to be just like them
What if I don't want to be like them
What if I want to be like me
Or like when you want to talk to your parents. "IM NOT A GIRL MUM" he screamed as his mother smacked him and he fell to the ground "you're a girl you useless bitch" his mother spat as she slammed her half full beer bottle over his head
When you need help but you're too afraid to ask because you're afraid of losing you're family. When you're afraid they think you're lying
When you just can't you can't ask for help
When you wondered what would happen if you took the pills in the cabinet in the bathroom.
Would anyone notice you're gone?
Or when you want to ask for help because you think you're depressed and you ARE
Or when the voices get louder but you can't ask for help
"You're lying"
"They don't care"
"They'll never believe you"
"Just do it"
"The blade"
"No! The pills"
"No the gun"
"Use them all"
"Have fun in hell"
When you give up
