Words heavy
Stop on the way out
Never passing my lips
The cries I want to let out
The words I want to escape
The emotion I want to let go
The hurt that stays bundled inside never getting unraveled
The sadness that drips from my eyes
The happy light that has vanished from the sparkle in my eyes
The fear showed so clearly in my eye
The fear that is no longer there
No longer there to keep me here
The scared chill when the thought of leaving crosses my mind
Is now my happy light, the sun, and warmth that heats my body
The excitement that rushes through my blood when a knife closes in on my neck
The thought of death is hands that hold the burden
The burden of my heavy words
The words that haven’t been spoken
The thoughts that haven’t been said out loud
The scars that grace my skin
The worry of pain washes away when the thought of eternal sleep takes over
The never-ending racing heartbeat slows when the thought of resting in peace takes over
When the hardest part of living is taking breaths to stay
When the hardest part of living is the involuntary act of a heart thumping in my chest
When the hardest part of living is trying to be happy when waking up in the morning
When the hearest part of living is forcing your favorite meal down your throat
The heavy words
The burden of the thoughts
The weight of the voices that fill your head with doubt
The doubt that you shouldn’t be here
The thought that you are better off gone
The thought that the suffering will stop when your heart slows
And the easiest part of living is not living at all
