Tell Me What To Do

by Danielle   Mar 17, 2005


All day they run through my head,
These thoughts of suicide.
I can’t take this much longer,
This pain is too much to hide.

I feel so spent and worthless,
No one really cares anymore.
I can’t take these non-stop tears,
My body is too weak and sore.

I don’t want you to criticize me,
That’s the last thing I need.
The more you pick on me,
The less I feel I’ll ever succeed.

You say my life isn’t that bad,
But just for once, try being me.
You see, I don’t have friends,
I’m pathetic, dejected & lonely.

Don’t tell me you understand,
Unless you honestly do.
I would do anything in the world,
Just to trade lives with you.

I feel like everything’s my fault,
That’s why I’m forever saying sorry.
Although all I ever hear from you is,
“It’ll be okay, don’t worry…”

You tell me I’m your friend,
Although you’re never there.
It couldn’t be more obvious,
How much you don’t care.

You continue to assume me,
Since I appear to be content.
You, in reality, are oblivious,
Because, in you, I feel I can’t vent.

When I claim no one likes me,
You claim it isn’t true.
No one has ever told me (they liked me),
The way they have you.

Being my friend is difficult,
Since I lost the only one I had.
I’ll never feel closer to anyone,
Hence, I’ll always be this sad…

Now the only one who knows me,
Is this notebook in which I write.
It knows my true emotions,
Where I confess each and every night.

I see everything I wish I wasn’t,
When I take a glimpse in the mirror.
I begin to feel even more pathetic,
When tears consciously reappear.

I can’t do this one more day,
Can’t take all this hatred…
This is nothing short of miserable,
Would I be better off dead?

Please tell me what to do,
As I’m terribly confused.
I can’t stop hating myself,
My mind is far too abused…
