you will judge my choice,
you say you won't but I know you will.
yet,
I don't blame you.
I know you meant no harm,
just reacting to what hurts—
I know what that feels like,
cause this is what it feels like to me.
death just seemed like the only freedom I have.
the last feeling of happiness I contain
is being away from here
permanently
I never was good enough
might as well complete
their wishes
they didn't understand me,
they just shut me out.
they told me to shut up.
so here I lay, wrist still bleeding
the last time blood would rain
with life
don't try to find me,
because in the end
I couldn't find myself.
just darkness under color
