I think Im going to kill myself
Rationally
I dont think that i
Can fight this battle anymore
My war against myself has been lost
And I am weary of fighting
With no cause
I am exhausted from the strain
And heartache
And weak enough to know
How easily I can break
And too afraid
To wait around
For another overwhelming breakdown
Sometimes I have the urge to do it
Just to feel as if I have some
Control over my life story
Sometimes the fear of death
Makes me want to run into the arms of
Death itself
Sometimes the pain of seeing you with her
Is too much to bear and
I want to eternally
Shut my eyes from witnessing it
The ghosts of my past
Linger on and haunt me
And accompany me to the grave
The pain of my past
Beats down onto me
And I am crumbling under
The feel of
Worthlessness and
Self-hatred that overcome me
I feel as if suicide would be a
Release from the wound of living
A necessary extermination
Of myself from the world
Or merely euthanasia
From my own ill stated mind
My mind will murder me
Or I will murder my mind
Which will come first?
My mind seems to be winning
As I believe more and more how
Ugly I am
How fat Ive become
How irritating,
Emotionally draining,
And annoying
My presence has been
And continues to be
The stress and frustration I
Inflict onto the lives of others
The heartache I inspire in those
Around me
The world feels as if
It will never be free
Never be free of me
The world will be better off
When I am gone and the earth
Has consumed me in its
Depths
Hiding the memory of me
Protecting others from the trauma of
My existence
Truly, my death would be
The celebration
Of my birth
Finally passing
A sign that the storm is over
For me
And for you
If you are honest
You would admit
Life would be easier without me
I should be considerate of others
And kind to myself
And try harder to do it correctly
Eliminate the chance of waking up
From a potential eternal slumber
To let go of this earthly body and
Let it rot
So that my soul will be free
To pass on
And start anew
If this is my desire, my will
Then will not God grant it to me?
Life is a burden
Living is a torture
To hurt those you love
To be tormented by your past
To love those who do not love you
To lose your valuables
To your enemies
To feel lost in society
Feel a lack of direction
Drive and ambition
To be a hideous sight
To yourself and those around you
A single handed
Plague upon the earth
I apologize for living
I apologize for my cowardice with
A blade and
A pill bottle
For not having enough adrenaline
To do
What needs to be done
Correctly
But my attempts
Improve each time
My cuts get deeper
And my numbers increase
I am slipping
And soon
Will find success
In dying
