The Pain


I never understand
Why I feel like I do.
Every day it gets harder
Just to get through.

The loneliness is scary
It’s when the thoughts come
At times I overreact
At times I become numb.

I never know
Just how I’ll feel.
No matter what happens
This is always so real.

Time goes on and
The days go by
It’s days like this,
That I just wanna die.

I have always been lost
Not knowing where to turn.
I thought it was going good,
But then I learned.

Good things go bad
As quick as a flash.
With the swipe of a blade
It’s an easy slash.

It’s not that I want
To hit that vein
It’s just that every cut
Releases the pain.
