Hello, Just Me Here

Five

Five People

Can you guess who they are?

They’re all missing but yet right in front of you

How can that be true?

Their minds are missing and they’re feeling “blue”

Destroyed by themselves, their thoughts, and their families

Trying so hard to stay with reality

But reality can be cruel

I’m sure you know

Reality can be cruel

The lower your light glows

The further they drag you under

Their demons lurk

Not in shadows

But in their souls

Where else would such hatred and pain go?

Finding relief in harming themselves

Better us than others

Oops I think I gave it away

But I’m sure you knew before

Who I was speaking of

Four girls, one boy

It’s so hard to say things to you

 I want to die

Don’t let me live

Crack my skull

Break my ribs

Physical pain is better than what I’m feeling

Isn’t that right?

Razors and knives

And scissors

And lies

A scratch on the wrist

Stab a knife through my heart and give it a twist

Crying

Dying

Smiling

Lying

Shining

Laughing

Smiling

Lying

Lying

LYING

LYING

Always lying

And lying

And lying

And lying

And crying

And smiling

And lying

And lying

I’m dying

I’m bleeding

My lungs are still breathing

My heart is still beating

But I don’t want it to

My wrists are bleeding

Help me I’m still breathing
