Poems By Me

Let Me Be Free

'Take my life, I'm done with this place.'

Bend over, wipe the tears from my face

'I'm alone and hurt, I have no worth.'

Stop your heaving, slow down your pace.

'My insides are burning, just set me free.'

You're beautiful, be the best you can be.

'I'm sick, confused, broken and used.'

Hear the people speak, they're full of envy.

'Give me my razor, toss me a gun.'

Honey, don't you see? You can't ever run.

'The voices in my head tell me everyone wants me dead.'

Slow down, stop and think, have a bit of fun.

'Your words mean nothing. Why can't you see?

I'm a girl who's lost everything, I hate having to be me.

The things you say don't make me okay.

i put this gun to my head, and finally, I'm happy.'
