** This ones dedicated to my teachers...because they are supposed to help me, not make me feel like a worthless waste of space. Yet they do it anyway **

I wish you knew how every morning
When I wake up
That I want to scream
Because I woke up alive
Instead of dying in my sleep

I wish you knew how hard it is
For me to get out of bed
Get dressed
Show up at school
And attend classes

I wish you knew how much it hurts
Watching people fit in
Watching groups of friends whisper and laugh
While I'm alone
Hating every breathe I take

I wish you knew how hard I try
In class keeping up
Trying to contain my anxiety
And not break into tears
Because I'm so tired

I wish you knew how much it hurts
Being called out in class
Being told I'm not trying
That I'm not smart enough
That I'm stupid

I wish you knew
With every word
That leaves your lips
That's just another cut

One of the many cuts
That will end my life
