All the Time

I think about how they hurt me.
I think about why they ignore me.
I think about why they leave me.
I think about the people who never care for me.
I think about how much they kill me inside.
I think about the miserable life I have.
I think about how worthless I am.
I think about crazy things to do.
I think about suicide.
I think about ways to die.

But at the end of the day.

I think about reasons to love.
I think about how great life is.
I think about the precious life I have.
I think about how lucky I am.
I think about why I am still alive.
