Goodbye.

by CountlessMoments   Jan 24, 2021


Why do I constantly feel the need to be strong
That crooked smile, that forced body language,
it all feels so wrong..

Self harm,
Something that constantly crosses my mind
Can't help who I am,
It's just how I'm designed.

To be young again,
To be free again,
So much pain in me,
Why can't anyone see?

Loud and proud,
that is all they see,
All I want is to be found,
For everyone to see the real me.

Tough me, is what the world see's
but all it is, is a cry for help.

This world is not for me
I'm miserable, depressed
but what I can guarantee
is to one day be at rest.

I love myself but not enough
this world is cruel
to live in it, you must be a fool.

This is me crying for help,
My life sucks, I'm over it,
Please forgive me as I am doing this for me.
This will be the last, and maybe you'll finally see.

    Why do our lives seem destined to bring hardship? No matter how 'loud and proud' we show ourselves to be, this 'crooked' smile is the tell that some will see. You're right this world is cruel and it can be unfair too. How does one stay afloat when the sea is crashing all around? Determination and hope. Find the light in the world, it is there, it's just hard to see it, hard to believe it when it's been so hard. You're tough, remember that. Being resilient and creative are useful skill and, I'm sure, will pull you through. There's a sun on the horizon with your name on it.
    Best of luck.
