Sometimes all I want to say is ***** life
Sometimes all I want to do is end it all
So my legs get marked and my back gets burned
Everyone says It will get better
Does it?

I've tried thinking that but it failed
What comes is depression, pulling me deeper
What starts as small, very little scratches
What starts out as not so often
Can it get deadly?

Deadly, the word that comes up often
Deadly snakes, Deadly spiders, and other things
But the deadly cuts are deep
But the deadly cuts are many
Can I get help?

Help is what I need
Help causes hope is what they say
Because Help has four letters
Also, hope does too
Does that mean it is true?

Does it mean it is trustworthy
That I can get better
Better, they say, comes from taking pills
Better, they say, comes from talking
But not isolating?

But isolating is the way I cope
But what follows is the marks and the burns
Then the tables turn
They start feeding me pills that can be meals
They start giving me more therapy than I can get sleep
But isn't that help?

Yes...Sometimes it helps when I say ***** life
Yes...Sometimes it helps when I want to end it all
But my legs still get marked and my back burned
So I try to look like I'm fine
But does it mean that I am Ok?

No, but don't worry because
My cuts are not deep
My burns are not bad
I take my pills
I go to therapy
So I get help.

But the question is...
Does it help?
Hey guys! Do not worry about me because when I am posting this I am not doing any of this. I have builing up the confidence to post this.

The back story.
I was extremely depressed and had a panic attack because of seeing my dad and I wrote this during it.
