70.Dear Story,

206 10 11
                                    

I don't know if it's real
I don't know if I'm here
I don't know if these are
The feelings that I feel

I can simply just be trapped
Or maybe I am lost
But the scars on my thighs
Are the proof that I'm alive

The thoughts I always think
They want me to be dead
But the people around me
I don't know if they can bear

I don't think they'll understand
The reason I'm not there
I don't think a note's enough
To keep them all away

I hope that they don't cry
I hope they do not mourn
I hope they just don't care
Like they didn't when they could

I hope that they forget
That I was even alive
And all those memories
Hope they get lost in their minds.

I actually wrote this poem back in 2017.
It's weird to look back on it.
