Felt suicidal on the wrong side of suicide, not wanting to die; but so uncomfortable being alive. Wearing this human flesh, I've slept with so many with my eyes peering it's imaginations of all desires under a dress. Lustful thoughts always left me so **** depressed. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ Likewise with liking a girl, never taught how to truly love. Never focused on the looming dark backgrounds; as my eyes focused on stars. I'd shoot them down, with the same gun to **** myself, wishing it doesn't jam this time. Look closely; to the burn marks of my tongue, not being just bite scars. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ I once put a knife to my chest at ten years old, _"I can take my life at any given,"_ telling myself casually in bold. Must of been an angel holding that knife back; before my body went cold. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ In my teen years; these crazy headaches and mixing pain killers for the numbing pleasure, Thinking if I never woke up, it would ease the echoing ringing of my head's pressure. I felt the reasoning of being; being alive, being strong, being present; getting lesser and lesser. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ Wanting to drive at 120km/h off the road, either crashing into a wall, or doing a couple rolls, Losing my vision while driving, or losing the car's controls. Or bashing into one of the streetlight poles. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ If maybe the roof fell over my head where I lay, crossing with an armed thief on an unlucky day, A drunk driver speeding my way, or a brain cancer to leave my mind to decay. __I USED TO BE SUICIDAL__ I've just changed that statement nowadays to: __I DON'T WANT TO BE SUICIDAL TODAY__

I USED TO BE SUICIDAL
