Death
I embrace death
I welcome death with open arms
Death would be better
Than a non-existent life
My family says they love me
But they conveniently forgot me
When I needed them most
My mother never said she loved me
And now that my step-dad is gone
She's saying 'I love you' all the time
How can I believe her?
She never said it 
When I needed it most
For years I went on believing
That nobody cared
How can I believe,
When I am afraid it isn't true
I would rather die
Than have to go through
The suffering I had...
Still have...
Always thinking that nobody loved me,
No friends I could trust with all my secrets,
I would welcome death happily
If I had to go through that again
Death is welcome at my doorstep...
Death is welcome...

This poem described how I felt when I was dealing with certain things. I'm not very open about what I went through as a child but I can say that no one should go through what I did.
