I sit on my bed
Wishing I were dead
Because my life just didn't improve.
I hug the pillow tight to my chest,
Feeling even more than depressed.
I heave with every breath.
The pillow I hold is stained by my tears.
My heart hurts like a thousand spears.
I am not nearly understood
And I knew nobody would,
Although there is only one person who did,
Yet you see how I said it in pass tense
Because that one angel who actually made sense
Was torn away so brutally.
I cry for her, I cry for me
I cry because it is my plea.
My family has shattered into a million pieces,
And my sense of comfort still decreases.
My next few years are gone without a doubt.
I just want to let my feelings out
For all to hear so that they might care,
I know I have to try to suffer from within
So that nobody will bear this awful sin of self-hatred.
My sanity is hanging on a raw thread
Ready to break at any moment.
This is what I have become
A lost soul who roams this god forsaken world aimlessly
And crying my tears shamelessly.
Because I know that though this world, so cruel
Will have to end and I may be at peace.

Welcome to Allpoetry
This is sad.. I think that writing in the first person in current events is more efffective though
You've shown good use of poetry
