Thought I had it all figured out This was what I wanted without a doubt So why do I feel so out of place Constantly in a dark space If it’s not this then it’s that Walked all over like a door mat My opinions don’t matter so why bother Feel like i’m a lamb to the slaughter Just existing until the day I don’t Want to speed it up but I won’t Sick of living with this sorrow Wondering if it’ll be better tomorrow What’s the point of trying anymore Just want to be drunk on the shore Staring out at the ocean knowing true peace Instead i’m being broken piece by piece Not much left of me Is this how it has to be Always the bad guy No matter how much I try I’ll never be what everyone wants me to be Am I supposed to always feel this lonely Wonder when the day comes that I snap Will it feel better than feeling like crap Should I like the idea of being isolated Start doing drugs until my eyes are dilated Maybe then i’ll forget about this pain Maybe then i’ll get off this train That takes me to every depressing stop Slowing falling from the top Losing my grip on everything i’ve had I guess i’ll end up exactly like my dad Every single day my happiness will deplete How do I stop feeling so Incomplete These are the thoughts that remain This is it, I’m lost again

Lost again.
I’ve been being selfish for so long Stuck in my head i’ve got it all wrong On the sidelines while my family is in pain Wish we’d talk more but I refrain Don’t want it to seem like I don’t care It’s unfair, this responsibility i bear I know it’s not my fight But it doesn’t feel right Sitting here doing nothing for you Maybe that’s why i’m so blue I feel so helpless and I don’t know what to say Scared that you won’t be here someday I can’t find those special words Or sing a beautiful song like birds Something to take away all your trauma Hopefully someday you’ll forgive mama I hate seeing my family so torn apart Physically feeling those tears on my heart Hard to celebrate holidays being incomplete Wish i could shake this feeling of defeat What i’d give to be back at that wooden table I know we might not ever be stable But i miss laughing as a family Maybe it’s the insanity Going through another heartbreak Everything you do feels like a mistake You’re so much more than you seem The MVP on my team You’ve done so much for me Someday you’ll see what i see We’re all outcasts Not the first or last But you’re my older brother Held it down without our mother Without you I would’ve been so scared Thank you for the love you’ve shared Foster care was no match for us So many things we need to discuss Like why we stopped playing ball Or how did i get so tall I wouldn’t be who i am without you I wouldn’t be alive without you Never told you but you talked me out of trying When the only thing i felt like doing was dying We’re all so hurt We’ve been dragged through the dirt Yet we always had each other’s backs I just wish we could have that back I wish I could help.

It’s not okay to be not okay Smile through pain every single day Life’s too short to worry No one cares about your story You’re not depressed it’s just a phase Your head isn’t a boiling maze Everything is going to be okay You’re scaring everyone away You don’t actually want to stop living Just hurry up and get over the feeling It’s time you start acting like a man Remember it’s all part of some bigger plan So just smile and move on… right? No there’s darkness in the light Can’t have happy without sad Can’t have good without bad See it’s okay to not be okay Not everyday is a good day You’re going to feel alone Might turn off the phone Ignore everything and everyone Ask yourself if you’re really done No one knows about your pain Walk alone in the heavy rain You can pretend everything is over Or you can forget about being sober You only live once right Why not forget about it some nights Now i’m not saying become an alcoholic Or numb your feelings until you’re robotic Just that you don’t always have to be okay It’s okay if there’s no smile on display Please remember it’s okay to not be okay

It’s okay to not be okay.
Love is a huge part of our life From Stranger, Friend, Girlfriend, to wife You’re the one i want to grow old with Staring into your eyes has been a gift We’ve had our up and downs Our smiles and frowns Life’s been better since the day we met No matter how annoyed we may get I know we’ll find our way to one another Someday you’ll make a great mother I remember fighting for your attention Like i was in another dimension Knew that you’d be the one Oh how this journey has been fun I’m not the best person but for you I try Don’t need drugs because you get me high We’ve both got things to work through But you make believe love is true It’s 3 am and i miss your face Showed me that home isn’t a place It’s wherever you are No matter how far Adoring you while you’re asleep Reminiscing cuddling to lil peep The walks, talks, showers, and flowers The first time we shared a kiss When my mind wonders it goes to this At work and i’m thinking of you Gives me the motive to push on through You’re the reason my world rotates You and I dear, are Soulmates

Soulmates
The floor beneath my feet creaked It’s been silent in this room for a week Your body was found right where i’m sitting The words on this letter have my head splitting How could you be okay with leaving like this All i can do is cry and clench my fists I’m so angry that you left me here alone Why didn’t i just pick up my phone Maybe if i did you’d- Maybe you’d still be here I hope this made your pain disappear Are you okay with knowing you’ve broken us Or have all your memories turned to dust Gone like you I miss you You’re so selfish I just don’t get it After a week the feeling finally hit You’re actually gone What did we do wrong We all loved you and showed that we cared Why couldn’t you just get scared What did you even have to fear The love was always right here Maybe we didn’t love you enough Or maybe we loved a little too rough Either way you’re gone and i hate you i hate you so much i’m turning blue Now look what you’ve got me doing What happened to the dream you were pursuing I can’t help but punch your bed What was going on inside your head Couldn’t you just talk to me at all Or is that why you had called Why didn’t i answer the phone call I’m begging to god as i sit here and fall It wasn’t your time to go yet I keep thinking about how we met Just little kids at the same school We always thought we were so cool Especially riding our bikes to the shop Shared the same bus stop We’d always race to the top of the street I’m lying here crying on your sheets I’m sobbing in my sheets I thought about not doing it Even tried to call for a bit I just wanted to hear your voice again Maybe it would help ease this pain I’m sorry i didn’t say goodbye I’m just done living this lie I pretend i’m happy but inside it hurts Only seems to keep getting worse Tried talking about it but no one listens Yet they always ask why i seem so distant I know you think you love me but you don’t I can’t keep on going so i guess i won’t Don’t think of this as my suicide letter I just hope this makes it a little better

Suicide Letter

When I leave the world will still spin round I’ll be buried six feet beneath the ground Look inside my head and you might get sick Life is a disease, it’s just one big tick Slowly draining my existence Keep your distance I’m tired of being let down I’m sick of letting you down Every single day i drown Misery’s popular in my town Suicidal thoughts since i was ten Cried for help, was told to be a man Developed a strong hatred for men Have the worst of luck with women Tried to end it multiple times Went savage and committed multiple crimes Looked for any excuse to start a fight Drinking every night because it felt right Avoided mirrors and degraded myself Took pills, washed it down with what was left Of the bottle known as my only friend I ponder when my life will end Took matters into my own hands It feels like no one understands I don’t think i’ll ever be okay I’m sick of hearing what they say Tell me it’s fine, that i’ll get through this When deep inside of me there’s an abyss One i can’t seem to get rid of No matter how hard i push and shove This feeling of being empty I think about this plenty I’m sick and tired of feeling this way I’m sick and tired of today I’m sick and Tired

Sick and Tired
My biggest enemy is me I may be miserable but i’m free How can i be enough for someone else When i’m not even enough for myself I despise the person i see in the mirror With everyday the reason gets clearer I find comfort in being broken Rather be lonely on this path i’ve chosen All i know is abandonment, neglect, and pain Which is why i find peace in the rain I stare at myself and question my worth Thinking of the day i’ll leave this earth I shatter anything that could be good Maybe i’m just misunderstood I’m not a good person My pain will only worsen Because i want it to i’m scared of something new Whenever i have hope it’s quickly lost Lost so many things but what’s the cost I closed my eyes and counted to ten Decided then i’ll never try again So when things start to look up Leave it to me, to self destruct

Self destruct
Forget everything I said I’ll be alone until I’m dead The voice in my head was right all along The bottom of this bottle is where I belong It’s about time I stepped on the brakes About time I gave my heart a break My minds a dark place but I feel safe there Sure it hurts but at least I’ll be aware I know where the pain is hitting I torture myself and it’s fitting I deserve all the hate I get Tried against my odds and lost the bet When I hear your name part of me shatters you’re happy and that’s all that matters you made me feel whole again but now my heart has hardened i wish i wasn’t so in love with you especially when you text out the blue i get happy to know you still need to use me and i’ll go wherever you need me to go i’d tell you anything you’d want to know i would do whatever it was you asked of me show you the flaws of my history i’d be there and i’d do that do anything to have your back but you’re better off without me here no one cares to wipe my tears i’ll only start to make things worse and this is why love’s a curse

Love’s a curse
Some things are better left alone some days i’m better off my phone waiting for that text that’ll never come back’s against the wall i refuse to run i’ve run from so many problems in the past i told myself that she’d be the last and so she was, the last person i truly loved can’t remember the last time i was hugged i feel so empty and broken inside last time i think i actually died nothings been the same since that attempt maybe that’s why i always feel contempt tell me you hate me, hit me as i cry on the floor don’t stop if you see blood, hit me some more this is what i told you i deserve there’s a part of me that you’ll always reserve which means i’ll never be happy again i’ll never feel the way i did when i was ten once i turned eleven you showed up i took you in like i would a lost pup except you knew exactly where you were you’re the cause of this pain i endure you make me tired when i’m wide awake you’re the reason i want to drown in a lake i don’t know how much more i can take even if i heal it won’t be long before i break don’t you see old friend, i’ve given up already shaking as i type there’s no way to keep steady breathing’s uneasy stomach’s feeling queasy blade in my hand, i’m prepared for the end congrats depression, you’ve won old friend

old friend
I gave you my damaged heart Trusted you, but you tore it apart In the corner thinking in the dark Stabbed me deep, you really hit the mark I don’t want you on my mind Never knew love would be so hard to find You put me in the mood to get wasted I’ll never forget the way your breath tasted The little noises you make while you sleep Cuddling while we listen to Lil Peep I know you don’t mean it but you tear me apart We knew it wasn’t a good idea from the start I’m sorry I caught these stupid feelings Wish we could go back to the beginning Avoid any complications and just stay friends I hope it doesn’t but I’m scared of how this ends I break my heart and you hurt my head Can’t shake the feeling that I’m better off dead The thought of losing you absolutely breaks me Maybe that’s the way it has to be I’m just not good for anyone If only I could’ve gotten the job done Maybe the world would be a better place Hating myself while tears go down my face I know this situation is all my fault Think it’s time to just store my heart in a vault Throw it in the cold bottom of a lake Hope no one finds it for their sake And here I am turning my pain into art Don’t feel bad, I’m the one who tears me apart
