I cry my eyes out to the feeling of hatred, disappointment, and death.
I beg God to take my life as I stare at the dark tinted walls.
How could this be? I try to sort my thoughts and think of what I did to deserve this, as I continue to cry a soft force feels like it overpowering me.
I'm silent, I hold my breath in fear. As I get weaker and weaker, I start fighting for my life, I scream in pain, Im fighting my inner self, like my demons were taking over. Like all my sins were finally becoming me.
I get this new motive to hurt. Not just other people, to hurt myself. I fight the feeling, I will not turn into myself. I want to be different, to be happy.
I sit in the floor and rock myself to my own pity. I begged him to take my life, did he answer me? I finally got it. There is a god. There is a hell. There is an afterlife.
I have done made my decision, I've sold my soul to the devil. Maybe you do go to hell for killing yourself, maybe not literally, but killing my future.
