you find yourself losing friends
more
and more
it's harder to get along with people
you want help but you don't want people to leave
you worry that people think you're an attention seeker
so you smile and pretend to be happy.
but you break down when you get home,
when nobody's watching.
you worry that your friends think you are paranoid
despite the fact that it's true.
you could do with someone to remind you
that you're good enough and tell you it will be alright.
but no one is here.
you feel alone.
you've been feeling an overwhelming sense of nostalgia.
you desperately want to go back in time.
you'd change some things.
you wish you never met that one person
and you want another to come back
who you know never will.
you get home under the covers
and cry
you wish you were dead
and you feel guilty for this wish
you want to change so much about yourself
you might as well become a whole other person.
you find yourself laughing and smiling less.
you constantly feel miserable.
you don't want to feel like this,
to keep going on like this,
you can't
it's too repetitive.
so you take the the knife
and slit your throat.
you're dead,
you're gone
and there's no going back.
you left.
you left me
how could you leave me?
you don't have to live in pain anymore
but i do
