When you fuck things up every time

When you lose who you are

When your family is such a mess

And you feel yourself break everywhere

This is what makes you depressed.

When you look down at yourself

And think you might be sick

Why aren't you smart enough?

Why aren't you pretty enough?

Why are you so damn lazy?

Annoying?

Pathetic?

When you love but won't be loved

When you speak but won't be listened to

When you try but always fail

When parents are at war

When mom expects too much

When dad has found another girl

When the pain is unbearable

All the reasons you hate yourself

All the reasons you want to cry

All the reasons to give up

Fear of leaving

Fear of staying

Fear of the unknown

Fear of being nothing but a bunch of lifeless bone.
