Death's Sound

I’ve tried so hard to please everyone else
I have no time to please myself.
With each passing day, I hate myself more
And each passing day, I dread what’s in store.

Sometimes I just wish to feel the blade
Of a freshly sharpened knife, the color of jade.
Slicing into my skin, prick by prick
Until my life is ended, my flesh and blood slick.

I cry when I’m upset, I feel pain when I’m hit
I bleed when I’m cut, and I’m charmed by wit.
I’m only human, I’m not perfect, I’m not the best around
But I try my hardest, and yet I still hear the sound.

The painful sound of death, calling me day by day
Suicide is an option, and I see no reason to stay.
Slowly I lose my friends, and the ones I love most, too
And people think I’m hideous, even though I know it’s not true.

No one knows me, because I don’t know myself
I’m scared all the time, of me and my health.
Have I gone mental, am I really this unstable?
Or is this all some cleverly written fable?

Maybe I’ll never know
Maybe there’s no life after death
Maybe I’ll end up a drug
Maybe someone’s meth.

All I know is that the pain is real
And every day I think of ending it, just to feel.
Please release me from this earth-bound hell
Before I hear the darkest death’s bell.

Be Honest.
