Never shall I forget the day in which my whole life changed
The day I was introduced to my closest "friend"
Her name is Grief
She follows me everywhere  
She's been there for me since my father took his life
Grief likes to bring her friend along sometimes
His name is Guilt
The two are always there for me, reminding me of my uselessness
"you're the reason he's gone" they chant behind me
Every day
My only break from them is when I sleep
But even then, Insomnia creeps into my room and talks to me all night
Reminding me of how much I let Guilt and Grief in
But Insomnia is the one to show me how to deal with them
"Cut them away, they will leave your body in the color of red and escape by trickling down your legs"
So, I listened
And slowly, things got "better"
Then worse
Every night I had my "freeing session" but they just kept coming back
So I gave up
I let them stay, and gave up
My three friends still taunt me, but maybe I deserve it
