A letter to those who don’t understand.
For those who don’t understand how bad I am.
I cried tonight. I tried to explain to you how sad I was. It didn’t help. When I said I needed to go, I needed you to hear the tears in my throat. When I said I wanted to give up. I needed you to stay.
When I said I was done, I needed you to make sure I was okay. But you thought I was so it’s okay right?
Tonight I cried
Tonight I sobbed in my bed.
Tonight I called the Suicide hotline. Begged them to help me live.
Tonight I cried to a stranger, the stranger who might have saved my life
But I wish you would have stayed..
